                <description><![CDATA[Thanks for your comments Kevin.  Sorry to hear that you lost your photos. I would have been devastated at that too. I so love looking through my albums. Glad you enjoyed your time in Scotland and have such fond memories.  It's amazing how emotional attachment and memories can be very strong no matter how many years have elapsed. I really like your question, "how would a cyborg react".  You've got me thinking again. :)]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for your comments. Language learning has moved by leaps and bounds since I was a shoolgirl.  I was thinking the other day that SecondLife would be an excellent tool to use. Total immersion could work there, e.g. walking through the virtual Hungarian streets, all signs and notices displayed in Hungarian; stopping by a restaurant, discussing the menu with the waiter before ordering a meal, making hotel reservations, asking for directions.. and so on. The limit is only our imagination (I can't remember who said that). Maybe this is already happening in schools.  :)]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Neil,
Thanks for your comments.  How interesting that you worked in Hungary. I seem to be following in your wake! Hungary, Dubai and India (although I only visited India).  I looked at jobs in Hungary but they don't pay much. It maybe an option for the future though.  Because Hungarian is so different to English I feel that makes is easier to learn in a way.  I expect there are a number of English words in Hindi. I agree that keeping motivation high online in tough.  I have a friend who checks on my progress so that helps. :)]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Ania,
Thank you for your comments.  As always, you put a lot of thought into any responses you make. I can't ever see me writing as well in Hungarian as you do in English. :)  Thank you for the links too.  I shall check them out. At school, and even after, I tried to learn French but apart from being able to say a few sentences, I was pretty inept.  For many years I was willing to accept what my teacher told me, that I was no good at learning a language.  I've spent the last few summers in Budapest and have fallen in love with the place.  It is a difficult language but because it is so different from English I felt that would make it easier somehow.   I can't get away with 'guessing' what the word can be like I could with French. I must stress that I am an absolute beginner.  I want to train myself not to translate everything into English, if that is possible.  I have to say that the MSc has made me question how I was taught and how I learn.  I am ridding myself of old beliefs. We are all capable of learning - it's just a question of how much we want to. And I really want to learn Hungarian.  :)]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Geraldine,

When I checked out the Timeline, I wasn't sure what to make of it especially as I hadn't heard of the virtual choir before.   Then when I watched the YouTube video - well it quite blew me away.  Love the whole idea of it, that no matter physicality or locality you can still be a participant.  Thought it was great that you received a comment from outside 'our community'.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Ania,

A wonderfully creative ethnography.  I really like how you've put it all together. I had no idea that the ELT community was so vibrant.  I'm not a great lover of Twitter, have similar views to  Daniel, believing it to be 'chaotic' and 'superficial' as quoted above.  But you've proven how well and to what extent it can be used.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Neil,

Thanks so much for your comments, I'm glad you enjoyed it.  It's always a bit daunting about how others will perceive it when you start out. Like you,  it was a case of 'publish and be damned' as I was running out of time. It was an enjoyable journey and the Aeron Haworth case certainly made me stop, think and reflect on what a powerful tool online communication is.  Don't think Haworth is ever going to forget the lesson he learned. As for digital spaces, I find it fascinating that we tend to find uses that were never initially envisaged.  Part of our creativity. :)  And isn't it good that humour still shines through.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Carol,

Thanks for your comments.  The vision in my head didn't quite transpire to 'the page' so to speak. Gathering the data, getting to grips with the application and the frustrations of uploading/downloading was more time-consuming than expected. I almost resorted to using powerpoint but felt this was an opportunity to try something new.  I am so pleased to hear that it made sense to you and that you feel it represented a community.   

I know what you mean about Prezi, I get a little sea-sick too with it.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Kevin,

Your virtual world is very colourful, even has a 'yellow brick road'.  Unlike Daniel, I don't get the reference. I wonder, is the size of man and robot significant?  Re your twitter comment about everyone reading something different into the visuals, that's what I find fascinating about this task.  Though I may not find it so good about my own visual as I've had to change idea and apps a few times.  What software did you use?]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Daniel,
Just retrieved this, and your other reply, from spam!  
Thanks for your comments. Now you know I wasn't being rude in not acknowledging them before now.
I wish I had more time to spend finding my way around Prezi, it has a lot to offer.  
Should have taken a poll to find percentage of romantics vs cynical (or sinister).]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Hi Daniel,

This is an interesting take on what we’ve covered. It made me go back and read Sian’s paper again.   

I made a connection with your phrase,  “echoes of dead content which still exist in some form” and fossils.  In both instances long dead but still leaving traces of existence for the researcher interested enough to peel back the multi layers. It can be quite comforting in a way to think that we leave traces of ourselves behind.  It’s proof that we existed.  Maybe that’s our fear, not machines.]]></description>
