Can I ask what the trouble was? I am not sure I follow you when you say it wouldn't let you out again. Maybe this is something I can bring up with our developers. thanks, Jonathan Sorry to see that you had a bad experience with ThinkFree.

]]> Comment on Second Life by Olga http://ideastosteal.wordpress.com/2007/02/27/second-life/#comment-6 Olga Mon, 05 Mar 2007 03:42:20 +0000 http://ideastosteal.wordpress.com/2007/02/27/second-life/#comment-6 You pose some great questions about Second Life. I, for one probably could not answer most of them without a little research. One thing I find quite frustrating about Second Life is the connectivity. On more than one occasion, I have spent a long time trying to connect unsuccessfully. I find that the program constantly requires upgrades. On a positive note, it is quite fascinating once I cross the connection path. You pose some great questions about Second Life.

Very clean design. I think blogs could be used in libraries for book clubs to discuss reads and to engage teens in various ways maybe to discuss cultural and political issues. Hi

]]> Comment on School daze by ideastosteal http://ideastosteal.wordpress.com/2007/02/20/school-daze/#comment-3 ideastosteal Tue, 20 Feb 2007 18:02:37 +0000 http://ideastosteal.wordpress.com/2007/02/20/school-daze/#comment-3 I was reading about the new Microsoft School in The School District of Philadelphia. Wouldn't you have thought that this would be the perfect forum to try to expand on the idea of the Masters system? Teachers could use pre-recorded internet classes that each student could view on their laptop and then the teachers could actually act as tutors for any student having questions or problems. The viewings would have to be staggered I think in order for each skill level to get the individualized help that they need but I think it would be logistically possible.
