I’ve had my head down on a major project, a bunch of upcoming speaking engagements, some writing I’ve agreed to do, and…(hence the relative paucity of blog posts). That project, however, has been interesting for a variety of reasons, and one really is worth sharing: ID isn’t easy.

For me it is a blog community and following many experts on Twitter. Many of the blogs I follow are part of the eLearningLearning community. When it comes to free cloud apps, I also share them on my blog's Free Cloud Apps page. However, being involved in an e-learning community is a big help.
