Hi World Teachers
Now that the archives of the World Teachers at MSN group are safe at
http://worldteachers2.multiply.com/, where do you want to continue discussions?
In favor of
here (i.e. group of Classroom 2.0 on the Ning.com platform): the interface is more user-friendly than Multiply's for people coming from MSN groups: discussions are discussions and blogs are blogs, and all have a rich text editor. Whereas at Multiply our former MSN discussions have been saved as tagged posts in a single
blog, while new discussions are meant to take place in the
Notes. And there is no rich text editor for Notes or for replies to blog posts.
In favor of Multiply: keeping everything together in a single site, and that's a big plus. Moreover, there are work-arounds for the lack of rich text editor in Notes and replies to blog posts.
So really, it's a question of whether we want to be able to continue old discussions easily (Multiply solution), or to turn a new leaf while still being able to access old content.
