Lesson 3 Webinars

This week we're learning about Webinars in 23thingsKansas. I haven't gone to a live one yet, but listened to an archived one. I listened to Stephen Abrams Twenty Five Technologies to Watch and How through SirsiDynix. I believe it is close to being a couple years old. Two years ago I had never heard of some of these technology things and he was talking about technologies I'm just learning about now. He talked about the potential of each of the technologies and how he uses them. It was very useful, but boy, I have a lot more to learn! He said he read more than 500 blogs a day!!! How do people find the time to blog, read other's blogs, play on Facebook, and read their 3 e-mail accounts? I know I do not use my time as efficiently as I could. I wish I would have worked on that when I was younger, but I was busy being a mommy of 3, going back to college, working full time and being involved in extended family. I'm getting off track now, I guess that's part of my time issue problem. I think the potential for this in the next 10 years will be phenomenal. I could see businesses, classrooms, families, Facebook friends doing this as a way of becoming more personal through live communication with each other, not just typing or texting, but having real conversations with our voices.
