I hadn't updated my Bloglines to your new feed (even though I thought I had) and had wondered why you had gone "quiet" for such a long time. Your comment earlier today prompted investigation and I found that I'd been missing your voice for 9 months. I had actually thought you given blogging up - I'm happy that I am wrong and I am back, subscribed to the correct feed. Dinner with Helen Barrett would have been interesting, especially as I have heard her speak her in Australia a year ago. We also had a workshop day where she did some hands-on stuff with some of the participants. I found to be an interesting speaker although her ideas and concepts (digital space for life) are a long way from becoming reality here in Australia. I was very interested in her perspective on blogs where she stated that a blog was an essential component of an e-portfolio but solely for reflective purposes. I disagree as I think that a blog is so much more and is a true vehicle for lifelong and networked learning. Anyway, glad to have your posts filling my Bloglines again - sorry for not noticing sooner. John, I am so embarrassed.
