Listen to me

Yesterday I saw this amazing video on YouTube about online community and what it means to people.

I wonder how our online community feels and what our similarities and differences are. I bet it’s very much like this video. The one thing out of this entire video that had the biggest impact on me was the clip of a girl saying “Where even I can get noticed”. It made me happy and sad all at the same time.

She’s a very cute girl and there would be no reason in my eyes for her to not be noticed offline, but online communities allow everyone to be on the same playing field where everyone’s opinions have the same weight. I love that, and I love online community.

Feelin’ like a Punk

I’ve been hearing a lot of discussion lately about this “Edupunk” meme. I saw a fantastic post/link to a video today from Beth’s blog that linked to a video Tony Hirst did. It really resonates with all of the discussion we’ve had among the local PSU tech/ed people lately.

Check it out here.
