Open Education - random stream of consciousness

following some new people on twitter now... which prompted me to pop in here and do an update - which I've not done for a while...

As I've mentioned before - I have 3 blogs. I'm not too sure why - they do each have a slightly different focus.  This one, at kattekrab.net has always been the most random, the most uncompromising.  The one least likely to make sense to anyone but me.

Travelling halfway around the world to speak at a conference - always a great opportunity to learn something new.

Dr Thornburg talked about a microbial fuel cell - that uses manure and salt water to generate electricity. Nice.

Imagine combining this with the OLPC... or other low watt computing devices... such as mobile internet gadgets and smart phones...
