Until I am FORCED to use these Web 2.0 tools, I am not going to concern
myself with Web 2.0. David has alerted us to a pitfall of these tools. I
am probably the devil's advocate but seems blogs etc are sophisticated,
advanced personal web pages. Holders of personal web pages have been
commenting for years and now technology has allowed for readers to comment.
I fail to see the hype. PLEASE no flames or blasting my comment. I am
entitled to my comments and opinion. SOme teachers still can not open
email. These teachers would certainly turn their head on Web 2.0. Yes, I
want to remain aware of the issues, but I don't see that "it is all that"
Seems more avenues for misuse. Yes, I use wikipedia as a jumping off
point and its pictures. Those who see the potential, my hat off to you !
As with anything "to each his/her own." Use it, encourage its use. My
current situation has not embraced it as many have. The most important issue
where I am located and others is TEST scores. Web 2.0 is definitely on the
bottom of many priority lists. It is definetly en vogue !

Clarification - any contact with students via these vehicles, I would
consider unprofessional (opinion) - but as this is in the same room, I
still recommend purposefully staying away.
