Well, it looks like I put my time on the eliptical and bike machines to good use this summer. I just finished reading Will Richardson's book Blogs, Wikis and Podcasts. I know, I'm a little late getting to it. Now, I'm comfortable learning about the topics discussed in here already, but what I think makes this book so terrific is that Will has made it "approachable" for all educators to begin to get their feet wet. As most of you know there are many who are still apprehensive about jumping into such tools in education. It's not just the curriculum and testing mandates keeping many away. I feel Will's book does a great job of simplifying it and providing a "jump-off" point for those considering bringing such tools into their classrooms. Nice job !

I couldn't agree with you more. This book has been invaluable to me as I educate myself about the Read/Write Web and prepare professional development for other teachers.
