This post will be more than the title suggests. I will probably change the title.

I want to spend a bit more time with the minilegends before reflecting back here.
There are definite comments I want to get down and thoughts I want to weave together and make sense of. As alien as it has been returning to the classroom, I need more grass roots stuff to make sense of recent discussions.

Various authors - The K-12 Online Conference 2006 Agenda http://www.downes.ca/cgi-bin/edurss02.cgi?rd=134077 ————————————————————- This online conference started yesterday with a pre-recorded keynote by Dave Warlick (to me it’s not a keynote unless it’s live - but that’s just me). It features a number of educational bloggers, mostly (as the title suggests) from the K-12 sector, and mostly from the United States (and not, as one commentator wrote, “top educational bloggers from around the world”). It’s kind of like a ‘Coming of Age’, only presented as a conference. Oh hey wait, it’s the same people http://www.techlearning.com/blog/main/! Who are - according to themselves - the leading edubloggers. As one person commented today - a ‘co-prosperity sphere’. I prefer the term from Jerry Pournelle: the CoDominium. Anyhow - I aggregate more than 300 edubloggers (and leave out just as many again) and try to represent their contributions as fairly as I can in these pages. And that is to me the core of edublogging, not self-styled A-listers. But hey - attend the conference, listen to Warlick and Freedman and Fryer and McIntosh and the rest and judge for yourself.
