Google in my mind is still up in there air. I'm not sure if Goggle is the new "Evil Empire" or not. They offer all these free service and web 2.0 apps, but how long will they remain free? Once Google apps are used everywhere, and people become so dependant on their services. Will Google at that point start charging? When they know that people have no other options? I'm pondering.... although, I can't stop loving the Google docs presentation upload, and slide sharing!
Interesting CNN article

The new age of digital learners has really opened my eyes to a new way and thinking, learning, and collaborating. It is interesting to see how people like myself in traditional classroom are venturing out to discover the "New web = web 2.o". there are so many new technologies. So many people were excited as was I to see this new products.
1. Show me what it is. (Importance & Engage)
2. Show me how it works. (Model)
3. Let me try it. (Practice)
4. Evaluate (Feedback)
It was nice to see the new technologies really embrassing the Instructional Design Process!
