I love this way of learning. Aren’t we all tinkerers when it comes right down to it?

David Armano at Harvard Business blogs takes the gardening metaphor further, suggesting that there are three steps to go through in creating a vibrant social network, whatever its purpose:

  • Seed
  • Feed
  • Weed

Suppose you are setting up a social networking site where people from within your organisation can set up a profile, get in touch with experts and voice and answer questions. The worst approach is to build the site and assume that people will turn up. They won’t. Instead, seed the community with a core (say 12 – 30) of positive, well-disposed, active employees who will get involved from the start.
This core will set up not only the right activities – discussions, forums, shared videos, whatever – but will also set up the right culture. A polite, sharing, communicative, no-blame culture where collaboration is welcome. That’s crucial to the success of your network.

YouFlow – The ImageFlow, Highslide and YouTube Mashup.

I like how this finds and presents the results of your YouTube searches with a nice thumbnail preview.

Now only if YouTube wasn’t blocked from work. 8-( Maybe someday!?!


 If you “do” learning you should definitely  check this out. Read Craig’s description then head over to the blog an introduce yourself and jump in on Thursday night.

eLearning Jockey: what did you learn today?


Have you ever experienced this? I have.


Good idea but I don’t see this getting anywhere near as much attention as the Slideshare one.
