"A PLN... gives you a place not only to begin to learn, but to ask question and seek help,

advice, support, ideas, resources, and it is just down right fun!"

  

~Scott Weidig@vanishingpoint

"This is the first time he was going to a conference where he met a lot of people

“who’s brains he had known” before he knew their faces."

-- Kevin Honeycutt@kevinhoneycutt

 "Sure, I could have gone to Google and searched for resources on Cyberbullying

and Internet safety. But why have a computer try to guess what I'm looking for when I can have the collective intelligence

of over one thousand professional educators working for me."
