Web 2.0 Educator

I chose to read Wes Fryer's blog "moving at the speed of creativity" and found it to be pretty interesting. Fryer talks a lot about different types of advances in technology and helps to introduce people to these new technologies. He also talks about the different issues regarding the interenet such as how much privacy a child should have on the internet as well as how fast the internet is developing. I have to say that a lot of the topics whcih Fryer talked about we over my head. I am just learning how to blog and so half of the topics Fryer is talking about I have never heard of. Each blog that I read was more like an informative essay. I would have to say that my favorite blog by Fryer was when he was talking about the United States not pitting enough "effort" into school. I especially like the youtube video "Two Million Minutes." I agreed with a lot that was said in this blog. It seems like students now a days (including myself) take for granted all the opportunities they have to learn about technolgy and what they can accomplish with it. Other countries who have less opportunities seem to have students who are more eager to learn and use every opportunity possible obtain more knowledge. I can see how Fryer's blog is a helpful refrence for many people and he's nice enough to share his knowledge by answering readers questions.
