@sbayne Welcome :-) Where are you? I can share my stream with you. I'm here: http://t.co/XWazmw73

Tired of Facebook's restrictive policies and poor privacy? Here's a dozen reasons to switch to #Diaspora http://t.co/n0kMIMF1 #ededc

Noticing are really nice sense of community within #Diaspora after only a few days of membership http://t.co/GL0odZkx #ededc

#diaspora agrees to abide by Computers, Freedom, and Privacy‘s Social Network Users’ Bill of Rights http://t.co/aFmJsZUU #ededc

@abuneil Good question. I think so, since non-members have fewer options for communication and are also less likely to be trusted #ededc

Bardzell&Odom "meaning of a place is constructed not by the individual but collectively, or intersubjectively, by the community" #ededc

Diaspora* is already in the top 2% of all open source projects ever #ededc http://t.co/6vuG3VOG

If cybercommunity membership is a simple signup, ethnoghaphic "arrival story" is more to do with group integration than membership #ededc

Game changer? Google + Pearson = free LMS. Open Class: http://t.co/5IP7HeEm

@abuneil interesting distinction. In either case, meaning is constructed in the mind of the receiver. Maybe not flawed, but personalized.

7:21pm via Twitter

If for the digital ethnographer, creating an account is the beginning of the arrival story, then what's the second login? #ededc

8:26pm via Twitter

@gfe8 #ededc It's tough to settle on 1 alright!! Even defining membership is tricky in some cases. I'm thinking maybe http://t.co/TJDfwR6m

9:01pm via Twitter

@Taddlepoosh me too to be honest, but I think first step is to identify a target community. Last years stuff is worth checking out too!

8:01pm via Twitter

Lots of potentially open doors are closed due to ethical minefields. But I'm still considering http://t.co/0GzNXyq4 for my ethnostudy #ededc

9:26pm via Twitter

#ededc students might be interested in creating an Internet Archive account to share your artefacts: http://t.co/d00PK2w6

8:17pm via Twitter

Is it possible to be an objective digital ethnographer when we are already members of the digital ethnos? #ededc

12:01pm via Twitter

Love everyone's visual artefacts, but find it especially interesting that everyone "reads" each of them slightly differently #ededc

Must remember to register http://www.Mühttp://t.co/bEh2TzG9 #ededc

Cultural influence on perception. http://t.co/foz9spk6 Surely the web is perfect the platform to test this? #ededc

9:05pm via Twitter

@tukinc lol, brilliant. Something definitely went wrong :-)

8:05pm via Twitter

Absolutely brilliant SlideShare by Doug Belshaw, The Essential Elements of Digital Literacies http://t.co/vPtZcdyu #ededc

For anyone without photoshop who wants to do a graphic for the visual artefact, here's a free online photoeditor http://t.co/bbb79yLu #ededc

The evolution of communication? 5 million years to go from hunting a mastodon to building a wiki page. Now we're getting somewhere! #ededc

9:05pm via Twitter

@j_k_knox thanks Jeremy, if only indeed :-) Here's a first stab at it: http://t.co/X6ivUeX1

@jar @taddlepoosh Thanks Jen, good find indeed @Taddlepoosh! Definitely more to the story alright http://t.co/3hELJv43

Is emergent metadata (ie crowd sourced tagging) a ghost in the machine? Are cached pages "dead" data? Is a wiki history an echo? #ededc

1:15pm via Twitter

Love @tukinc 's phrase "Digital Narcissism". Seems like everyone online is seeking an audience. Is Xfactor the same phenomenon? #ededc

8:43pm via Twitter

@Taddlepoosh Yr welcome, there are some great ones in there aren't there?!!! Still going through them myself.

8:37pm via Twitter

@tukinc lol, nice description. I always considered vlogging to be fairly narcissistic. Check this one out http://t.co/O4lJ6LTG #ededc

I've been looking for this since yesterday, as an illustration of the flaw in Kress's argument http://t.co/ZnZaIPIh #ededc

10:14pm via Twitter

Culture & UI Acceptance http://t.co/nb1BSAf7 . CrossCultural Website analysis w.r.t. High & Low-Context Cultures http://t.co/penue8vR #ededc

9:36pm via Twitter

Disagree with Kress' ideas on words&images. Words are atomic elements whereas images contain sub-images. Image vs text seems more apt #ededc

9:11pm via Twitter

Yip I know the film festival is over, but #ededc students will love this: http://t.co/A9NYyno1 Check it out!

8:52pm via Twitter

#ededc Stimulating skype-orial,thx all! Plenty to consider..like does ICT fluency mitigate the "sense of creeping strangeness" for learners?

8:15pm via Twitter

@abuneil #ededc Definitely something to worry about in course design for global audiences!! Glad you got to see it tho :-)

Hi web! This is my first post from Diaspora! Help to keep the web free (as in "freedom") and http://t.co/TJDfwR6m #ededc

The machine is Us/ing Us. http://t.co/nvDR7C57 #ededc Considering the web as volatile and changing, a ‘rolling present’.

6:50pm via Twitter

Just finished reading Bayne. Is a wiki a good example of a digital hauntological space? Thinking about version history, etc.. #ededc

6:42pm via Twitter

@jar Maybe,but surely no sense of agency if "all this has happened before..." At least hes no brain in a vat tho http://t.co/JQyWupbL #ededc

8:33pm via Twitter

@DGdotNET For me at least, its pure escapism - unless shared with another human #ededc

8:00pm via Twitter

World builder reminds me of my daughter with Sims3, especially the details. Wondering, what YOU find satisfying about world building? #ededc
