Back up: If Elluminate is not available at UCOL in time, I will arrange Dim Dim (details will be posted on the NING conference site

Key Link: Keep up-to-date 'here'
NING will be used as a place to share comments, post questions and discuss a week before before the planned event.

Debra. plans sound good. I'm spooked by Herve's dire warnings about social networking sites, so am resisiting any new ones at all. So I haven't joined the Groups one and I won't be in to your Ning.
Best wishes with the completion of all of this.

HI Willie
thanks for the encouragement. Herve has sparked some good points hasn't he. I think though Sarah had some good points as well, and I will have to spend some more time thinking.... I have never had much of an online presence as I have during the span of this FOC_09 paper, and I feel reasonably safe.... but one of the messages that I will take away is to keep changing the passwords, and don;t use the same one for everything!!!!!
