Just finished my first live web class using Edufire. I think it went well. Of the fourteen students that signed up for the class, six showed up. I think that this is pretty typical for a FREE class on Edufire. For those of you who were in the class, thanks so very much for coming. I appreciated your patience with me, during my first class using the system. I hope to get better at it as time goes on.

I promised students to publish a list of links that were mentioned during the class. Here they are:

First of all, here is a list of the 10 websites that I covered in the first part of my presentation.

  1. TripAdvisor.Com
  2. YouTube.Com
  3. Kiva.Org
  4. DonorsChoose.Org
  5. OhMyNews.Com – OhMyNews.Com English
  6. E-Democracy.Org
  7. BigOven.Com
  8. Flickr.Com
  9. Wikipedia.Com
  10. Digg.Com

To give you a sense of how many Social Networking Sites there are, here is a link to a list of Social Networking sites listed on Wikipedia.

I mentioned that I would link to a couple of posts about managing your social media life. Here they are:

  1. 4 Steps for Managing Social Media Attention
  2. My Social Media System
  3. 5 Tips for Managing Social Media

Unfortunately, I forgot to cut and paste the chat transcript from the class, so I’m not able to list all the links that were mentioned by students during the class. However, when the recording of the class becomes available, I’ll collect those links and add them to this page.
