“Content is King, but Context is the Kingdom.” - Tony O’Driscoll WHY ME? Thanks Karl Kapp and Tony O’Driscoll for inviting me to participate in a Blog Book Tour to discuss their new book " Learning in 3D: Adding a New Dimension to Enterprise Learning and Collaboration " and be part of a global discussion regarding learning in virtual worlds and 3D learning spaces ( Facebook Group ).

“Strange as it may seem, no amount of learning can cure stupidity , and formal education positively fortifies it.” - Stephen Vizinczey Actually, as you learn and acquire knowledge and skills, your ego might amplify your confidence, ignorance and pride, which again could hinder you from going beyond what you have already learned. You become stubborn to try new ideas and approaches, because you have reached a level whereby you are comfortable with what you are doing, and it works perfectly fine to you.

"The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.” – Albert Einstein Firstly, you might get annoyed with the term 'World Class' and I would perhaps, too.

After posting a message within the Tweetworks CwDev group that I intended to abolish the group due to lack of interest, I got the following response from Mark Langford, head and founder of Tweetworks : "Don't go anywhere my friend! The new Tweetworks release is happening very soon." This kind of personal interest is rare, and appreciated.
