As an avid Del.icio.us user I love social bookmarking and think all teachers should be using it. <BR/><BR/>Sounds like Diigo offers some real advantages (beyond being easier to type than Del.icio.us).<BR/><BR/>I will include a picture of me in my recap of EduBloggerConWest08.rob banninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12121727631592909094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24330419.post-33133655524141592752008-03-10T09:07:00.000-07:002008-03-10T09:07:00.000-07:00Bud - you are right.

As trite as that may sound, I value my humble contribution and the ability to help shape the conversation.<BR/><BR/>In reality, being a part of the edu-blogger community is also a selfish act as it really makes such events as CUE, NECC, and other conferences more enjoyable <B>for ME</B>.<BR/><BR/>To modify Alice's suggestion, I am going to "<I>embrace selfishness</I>" especially when it helps betters the common good.rob banninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12121727631592909094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24330419.post-19290339191447718862008-03-09T21:34:00.000-07:002008-03-09T21:34:00.000-07:00Oh, we're selfless and selfish.

THe wonderful magic of the whole thing, though, is that when I'm working things in the best possible way for myself - I'm helping someone else, too. And vice versa. <BR/><BR/> So I guess I'm starting to think about blogging as selfish selflessness.
