This the embrionic forum on the arcs site; not a domain that rolls off the tongue. If we have any interface designers around here would you give some thought to what classifications we might have for them. E.g. sitepoint's forums are not bad for orientating web designers. We certainly don't want the usual divisions such as "K to 12" and "higher education" as these are the kind of barriers we are trying to break down. So what "rooms"?

These are the collaboration services available to us (in Oz) at the moment. I've suggested (on the me.edu.au community page) that having me.edu.au as our SSO to them would be the way to go.

Could we see about using me.edu.au as a single sign on to arcs services?

Social media tools 101 (from blogs to wikis) [edna Resources] (simon fenton - jones commented on this item)
There are a wide range of social media tools businesses can use to become more interactive and exchange information and ideas with their customers. The tools are: blogs, microblogging, RSS, photo sharing, podcasts, social news and bookmarking, social networking, video sharing, and wikis. This toolbox explains in simple terms each tool with a definition, information about what it is, how it is used, and any technical information associated with it.

Others have discussed this - Alison I think. Interesting that it hasn't aggregated comments. Perhaps we have used slightly different urls.  -  Pru Mitchell
The other discussion of this was around the URL http://allinbitsandpieces.blogspot.com/2009/05/sbds-prototype-not-as-boring-as-it.html  -  Nick Lothian
There was also some commentary on this URL http://sbdsproto.nla.gov.au/sbdp-ui/general/about  -  Alison Hall

Representatives from the Australasian cultural institutions and Wikimedia meet together for a two-way dialogue to determine how to use the two communities' strengths to mutual advantage: why and how cultural organisations could get involved with Wikimedia projects and what Wikimedia needs to do to make collaboration easier and more effective.

Hello Simon, I have looked into this and this is something that needs to be updated from our end. We are hoping to have current group membership details displaying soon - Thanks

Hi Simon - there seems to be a problem with the feeds you are using - you are broadcasting the complete feed from Wikieducator and the Moodle Social Lounge as your own actions. Have a look on http://me.edu.au/p/Simonfj to see what I mean.

As you were making insulting remarks about a third party in you comment, I did not think it appropriate to have it display on my Blog.
