    Heh…this won’t make sense unless you listen for at least 6 minutes, but here it is:

    I love your proposed Digg model.

    I was trying to integrate pre-”Web 2.0″ terminology applications back when I was teaching English 202B (before I moved over here to Admissions). I had at least one student that was extremely resistant, but that was two or three years ago. I wonder if it would still be the case.

    At the time, I mostly concentrated on blogging, just to get them writing, but I was trying to get them to work within the discussion forum we had on ANGEL as well. That turned out mixed results, unfortunately, since the threading isn’t immediately clear to students, it seems.

    If I went back to teaching, I’d love to be able to integrate the more current 2.0-ish applications, and I think they could be used extremely successfully.

    Is there any way you could link to Cole’s old classes? I’d love to see the work the students are doing and how they’re interacting in that space.
