My TALO friends know how to have fun

Yesterday I had the good fortune to be able to eavesdrop and then join in for a bit with the brilliant and wacky TALO tribe for their TALO 2007 Swapmeet. (Don't ask me why I called them a tribe. Just an impulse!) TALO = Teach and Learn Online.

This morning I see they had fun at dinner. I can't resist linking to it.

This is a perfect example of how technology has fundamentally changed how we can be together. Maybe it has redefined togetherness in some ways.

I have met many of these wonderful folk last October when I was in Australia. I have corresponded with some of them. Yet they made me feel quite welcome - at a distance. With videos like this one, I get a bit of the social life of the gathering as well. Pretty darn cool.

Now, all I want to know now is what happens when the camera stops. Is it like "spin the bottle?"

Oh, PS, here are the slides we played with for a few minutes before the gang went to lunch. Their Friday, my Thursday night.

Glad you feel a little more connected Nancy, Lets nag Alex Hayes for 'the other side of the camera' view. It was quite interesting, maybe a little too challenging for most.

MSN Spaces ?

That was the other side and unfortuantely rendered in WMV.

MP4 was through the roof.
