Tonight I updated the home page and added some more links to the Web 2.0 workshop pages. I also installed a dsahboard widget for Twitter. This will allow me to post messages to the Twitter announcements on my blog as well as to the Jaiku badge on my home page. Neat. I will gradually let my classes know so that they can be informed about wiki updates, etc.

An interesting collection of like minded individuals focused upon Web 2.0.

Last Thursday evening Siva invited me to a meeting of the like minded web users in Singapore. Our common bond is exploring the benefits of Web 2.0 technologies, particularly in education. There are some photographs recording the meeting attended by myself, Siva, Kenneth and others in Toa Payoh on the Thursday night during my trip to Singapore.

We were all discussing the possibilities associated with the benefits of Web 2.0 technologies in fields such as education and business. I gave a quick, albeit faltering, demo of Swickis. I think I was just too tired. Kevin introduced the group to the world of Jaikus.

We left the Toa Payoh Library meeting room at 9:00PM and adjourned to a nearby McDonald’s to continue the general discussion. We stayed on till about 11.00PM or so and then returned to our respective homes. I met a couple of gentlemen who had attended the University of Wollongong! Stay tuned for my post on that coincidence!

Linked up a number of the recent photographs taken in Singapore last week to the appropriate categories in the various galleries. Quick correction to a link on the Podcasting Workshop page as well. Thanks for the tip Lay Kock!

Just updated the events gallery in the Singapore section of my photography galleries. This is my last morning in Singapore following a week of conducting Web 2.0 and Podcasting workshops. Photographs taken at the the Web 2.0 and Podcasting workshops are included. Plus some nice photographs of Vivien and Paul during dinner in Holland Village.
