Professional networking with me.edu.au

Quoted from the myedna blog: “The myedna professional networking service is on schedule for launch on Nov 27th as me.edu.au. The first release will allow early users to build a detailed personal profile, indicate their professional interests, and link to colleagues who have similar interests. Release 2 will give users file space to share resources and develop more communication links with their me.edu.au ‘colleagues’. This new service under the edna banner will be complemented by edna Groups and edna Links, which will feed directly into me.edu.au. Users will have their own address for the site in the form jbrown.me.edu.au”

This is a further online/web2 development for edna - Education Network Australia - Australia’s “online resource collection and collaborative network for the education and training community”, who already invite participants to share their experiences by creating a digital stories, sending photos or blogging with tags for del.icio.us, Technorati and Flickr, or contribute to the Frappr map and/or Voice Thread. They offer podcasts, forums and RSS feeds to discussion areas… a web2-rich environment that I have enjoyed delving into regularly for discussions and podcasts from featured educators.
