I've renamed my Blog!
21-January-2005
I never did like the name "Mike's Writes" but it was the first thing that popped into my head when I was building the new KnowNet site, and time is at a premium (I've worked an average of 12 hours every day since New Year's :o(
That name originally sounded amusing to me because there used to be a famous bicycle shop around the corner from my house called "Mike's Bikes" - famous because it had a sign painted by Ed Povey. There's still a lovely old shed from the Mike's Bikes days behind our house. Not missing a local trick, there is a greasy spoon around the other corner called "Mike's Bites". But a local pun is not a good reason to name a weblog.
"c-Learning" appeals to me for a number of reasons - not least its not being "e-Learning".
The "c" is intended as a bit of a pun: it admits that it is in a lower major version than "e" learning will admit to. It also stands for "collaboration" - which to me is the key missing ingredient in online-support for learning.
