Web 3.0
There is an overwhelming amount of information out there
use the web page she is posting to see how much information is sent in one second-overwhelming.
Teaching responsible use for social networking/bullying, etc.
Facebook-should we open it or not? A school has created a group so they are not able to see your personal page.
Bigger than just digital literacy. It is information curation with a community.
You need to be everywhere and how do you do that?

#ebc10network is the hashtag for this conference
PLN-
the leader doesn't really believe in the actual term "PLN."
has nothing to do with only the people you interact with on twitter.
P=Personal/Professional, etc.
L=Learning
Twitter is mostly about socializing and not learning. Blogs are more for learning.
There are affordances for social media for learning. It's the terminology that is the question.
I am surprised by the number of people taking notes on paper here at this conference. Strange!
Anytime teachers get together they call it "PLC."
Doesn't make it necessarily so.
We do need to have a common language though.
Everything will have different meanings for different people.
