Hope you find them helpful. Best, Damian Hi Scott – I didn’t have much to offer in the way of blogs, but I posted a few links under the wiki section. Hope you find them helpful.

For example, the Support Blogging wiki (supportblogging.com) is a great general resource for educational blogging. What I think makes your wiki different is that you're looking for a selective list of resources particularly appropriate for presentations, so I think you'll have to watch carefully that the wiki doesn't just grow into a collection of links and resources. And if I'm right, then you'll also have to keep reminding us that this is a selective list, not a general compilation. Are you going to serve as "editor in chief" for the wiki? And as such, will you be removing links/sections if they don't fit the (assumed) goal of "best selections for presentations"? Or will you have an "editorial staff" to help make these decisions? I'm not challenging this--I think it's a great idea and could be an excellent resource for presenters--I'm just wondering about the procedures and exact purpose. (Or have you clarified all of that on another post or somewhere on the wiki?) Thanks for starting this!

I wrote about that struggle here, and hope to be making some thoughtful additions in the next few days to Moving Forward. My responses here: http://www.mguhlin.net/archives/2007/08/entry_3467.htm I chose the image of an ant because I imagine all of us pitching in to get the work of hive survival, but I'm not pleased with the hivemind idea. Sigh. Take care, Miguel Guhlin Around the Corner-mGuhlin.net http://mguhlin.net Scott, great idea, but one I struggled with.

I guess my feeling is that if the value of our presentations will be ruined by sharing a few blog / wiki / video examples, we're not offering much to our audiences. Since I know you a little bit, I'm not too worried about you! I hope that you (and others) will share a resource or two. For example, the blogosphere's a big place. We all could use a little help identifying a few diamonds in the rough. Hi Miguel,

I truly appreciate that you will let us use this "community" resource with our colleagues, teachers, students, and parents. I have added a little bit to it, and I will continue to look for items of interest that may benefit everyone. Thanks! Dave Scott,
