Last year we've experimented with various social media to improve a sharing event for about 100 participants (for more details see my older blogpost ). This is not too difficult when all your participants are social media adepts, you announce your hashtags and off they go. So how can you still use social media?

I just read David Warlicks' post - I Just Don't Get it Yet â€" Social Networks where he discusses his recent experience with several Ning generated social networks including: I've joined Library 2.0 , School 2.0 , and Classroom 2.0. I've tried out several social network tools and have had a similar reaction.

Recently a company ask me to to give them an introduction in the usage of social media, by explaining to them how I use it. I actively started using LinkedIn (my first social media site) in 2004. In the mean time I have added other social media like this blog (WordPress), Facebook and Twitter.

This question goes only to my network and then also out to the rest of the world who look at Answers. I consider LinkedIn Answers to be quite a different animal.

I’ve been using Twitter for a number of weeks now, and that, combined with several recent social networking activities prompted this reflection. And Ning’s quite interesting too. However, they’re beginning to turn into one big Ning mass that I have trouble differentiating.Â

Even though I am now not using the field as consciously as when I was guiding organisational change trajectories, I feel when I work on introducing social media I may apply it too and could improve. Anyhow I also bought 'organisatiedynamica' by Thijs Homan and it's competing with social media for trainers by Jane Bozarth for my attention.

In my ongoing love affair with Quora , I recently joined the discussion on a new question: Can specialised social networks replace learning management systems ? After some consideration, I think the answer is really that soon we won’t be able to tell enterprise social networks and LMSs apart.

Twitter - microblogging Twitter is good for networking with colleagues, use and follow hashtags like #lrnchat. Diigo - or any other social bookmarker Diigo is very important to keep track off your online sources. Ning - or other paid online platforms I hesitated whether Ning had to be included in the list because it is not a free tool.

Mercenary Rationale for Network Work & Learning As I discussed in Evaluating Performance of Concept Workers , evaluating the performance of a concept worker is difficult because there's no right answer and most often the evaluator knows less about the subject than the worker.

I respond, 'well I'm becoming more and more interested in the use of social media and microblogging for learning', I then get puzzled looks that say, "too much time on your hands", "what is he talking about?" For me though I see a real role for social media as a platform for business learning. Social media - fad or forever?

The paper caught my interest because I am a fan of social constructivist theories of learning (think: learning by conversation) and always amazed at how differently people can think about what learning is and what it needs. Constructivist theory and social-constructism theories. I had expected a deeper explanation.
