Thanks for this rich post. I'll mark it for later digestion. Thanks also for the suggestion about discussing the issues you raise with class members. I am a university lecturer and find depressingly, that my students are typically conservative when it comes to using, uptaking net technologies in the service of learning/social networking. Mobile phones yes ... Facebook yes ... everything else ... no. What's really depressing is that they are artists in training. We do our bit and your nudge about taking them into some of the 'other' issues could just get them thinking and using in a more focussed way. Best wishes. Melanie
