Swimming in the Social Soup

Here I am in the Social Soup. I'm in the middle row, third from the left... We have a week off from our course (yesss!!) but I'm hooked on some of the web2 discoveries I've made. I'm adding more and more feeds to my bloglines account, and then discovered I could also use my yahoo site to do the same thing (that makes one too many choices right now). One of the things that showed up in my feeds today, and that I tried to insert (but couldn't), is a video about Generation WE. Its a book, but its also a website with this video. Oh yea of nonpolitical bent, be forewarned. It brought tears to my eyes, and it made me recognize why so many kids the age of my children feel lost, depressed, and hopeless. I know the emotions are being felt in Canada too, but what about the activism? This is a very smart group, with some powerful points to make. OK, here it is: http://vimeo.com/2032854 I am having fun with delicious, and soon I won't have those gazillion bookmarks anymore! The other day, Carol and I discussed how we could use blogging to communicate between branches and staff.
