Denise Easton posted the following note to the Linkedin version of Ideagora: "We have a wealth of webcast archives that were offered in support of the Innovate journal articles. I invite you all to share them in your social networks and via social media-- Lets see what happens." This will be very good content with some of the leaders in education technology. I can't wait to get them all running on Ed Radio.

Library. BASE is one of the biggest OAI-Search-Engines and includes some 31
million documents originating from more than 2,000 repository servers." They have just integrated their 2,000th. More information is available in their blogs.
