This is another official update to the original “Shift Happens” video. This completely new September 2009 version includes facts and statistics focusing on the changing media landscape, including convergence and technology, and was developed in partnership with The Economist.

Thanks to Wes Fryer for the tip-off in his post Can you Imagine So Much Global Sharing? My answer is – I never could, even though I’m an avid reader of SciFi. Dreaming and doing are quite different things!

Also in the same post – a peek at the state of the Internet.

2010 is one amazing year!

Connectivism and Connective Knowledge – my favourite concepts!! By the way, I get a lot a weird looks when I talk about what’s in slide slide 24 – but it’s true!!

But maybe it’s only true if you haven’t travelled the journey of having one and realising what it’s not good for? Small steps – BIG journey…..quick 🙂

Thanks to George for tweeting the link and inviting us into the Elluminate session for the presentation being held at the Centre for Educational Innovation & Technology in Queensland.
