My University has invested in a license for Learning Objects Campus Pack 4 and I’ve created a new blog in my new Personal Learning Space. I’m calling it Reflections for now and I’ll be using it to record ideas and thoughts on my personal learning and teaching experiences. I’ve changed the permissions to make the blog public with open comments. I can always change this later if it turns out to be a bad idea.
Podcast of the Week #2: Tech Weekly
It’s actually a fortnight since the last one but … this week’s Podcast of the Week is The Guardian’s excellent Tech Weekly podcast. Every Wednesday, regular host Aleks Krotoski along with regular contributors Guardian Technology Editor Charles Arthur and Digital Media Reporter Jemima Kiss, discuss the big technology news items of the week.
Since the demise of The Guardian’s Thursday Technology supplement, the podcast is the quickest way to keep up to date. [Highlights this week](http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/blog/audio/2010/aug/03/mobile-phones-future-android-ios) include a discussion of emerging trends in the Mobile Internet, the new Amazon Kindle and the ban on Blackberrys in the UAE.
Academic colleagues may be interested to learn that [Mendeley](http://www.mendeley.com/) will be discussed next week.
The Guardian Online has excellent technology coverage online. The launch point for exploration is [www.guardian.co.uk/technology](http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology). If you’re on the move, The Guardian’s mobile offering ([m.guardian.co.uk](http://m.guardian.co.uk/)) is not bad either!
