Virtual presence

A productive weekend with regard to Moodle and the bid. I completed the presentations, five in all for this coming Thursday, which not surprisingly has changed the agenda a tad. After some thought on the subject of on-line presence for participating staff, I have decided to use Myspace as the medium, its popular, easy to use and most will have heard of it already. I had seriously considered elgg, and had it already been integrated into Moodle would probably have plumbed for that, maybe if we get the bid and moodle-elgg integration runs to timescale then there will be some considerable mileage in using it for students. I met with the network team today and the possibility of us being able to stream the event look very promising, so stay tuned for the address of the webcast.
