Terry Anderson enters the blogosphere in a nice way with his Virtual Canuck eduBlogs weblog launching with a good post on educational social overlay networks. Anderson very nicely captures the alternative to mass syndication (such as technorati) that would, I think, work in an educational context: "These social overlay networks use web based technology to not merely connect people to information (as in a search for a music file) but more specifically to connect people to people."
