Open Source Social Networking
Jim Klein is talking about Social Networking using Open Source software. Didn’t realize that he was going to talk about Elgg. I installed Elgg to use with my students about 3 years ago. When I used it with students it was a really good experience for my students. The part I liked best was the Access Restriction selection project so that they could decide who could see a post. If you’re interested in social networking with students, I encourage you to look into Elgg. If you’d like to take a look, you can use James Klein’s demo site at http://demo.saugususd.org.
