report led me to post on the concept of 'collabuary' raised in the report, which prompted Stephen Downes to comment in reply , trying to distinguish between folksonomies and collabuaries (which he thinks isn't a useful term; it just means 'vocabulary' or 'taxonomy').

Like the blogosphere, it helps enormously if you actually comment on items. Users comment (often in relation to what is being said on a livestreaming audio event, or in reply to a question) and the comments show up in realtime, no refresh required, no relying on pesky Twitter search.

I've been reflecting on some of the points made about the pros/cons of the NpTech Tag and the comment that Laura Quinn left here. Obviously, it ain't no taxonomy and it shouldn't substitute for one. For an experiment, here's some conversation questions about the NpTech Tag. of our connected conversations and resource finds.

My design question: What is the best way to use this approach for a full-day workshop for 300 people? Some analysis questions: What points were the participants in the room tweeting? What is the form of the Tweets as related to Bloom’s Taxonomy ? How did that relate to the learning objectives?

For this round I've drawn two blogs - one new to me and one I commented on just last week. So, now the question - should a nonprofit organization have a blog?

Early in the life of this blog, I stumbled into a taxonomy of how social platforms work that I call the hierarchy of participation. At level four, the visitor has some awareness of how other distinct visitors respond to the issue and can access their comments and opinions. I was aching to ask these questions.
