- A social network is a social structure made of individuals (or organizations) called "nodes," which are tied (connected) by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as friendship, kinship, common interest, financial exchange, dislike, relationships, beliefs, knowledge or prestige.How much time are you going to spend?
- Facebook is the world’s largest social network, with over 400 million users.These are month-over-month comparisons. On an annual basis, Twitter is still growing its audience much faster (2,614 percent ) than Facebook (124 percent) because it is coming off such a smaller initial base of users and this was the year it entered hypergrowth. But that hypergrowth seems to have slowed since the end of April, at least in the U.S. Between April and July, Facebook grew 30 percent in unique U.S. visitors, while Twitter only grew 25 percent, so it is more than just a one-month aberration.

(Wikipedia)Sloodle project, which aims to merge of Second Life with MoodleTechnologies can sometimes take up to 10 years to become fully incorporated within everyday life. For virtual worlds to be accepted, then it is vital that teachers and students alike adapt to new ideas and technologies and use them to their full potential and become a useful tool in education (Yukiko Inoue, Effects of virtual reality support compared to video support in a high-school world geography class). The best idea for a more complete and wider variety in learning techniques is to integrate both paper based and technology based methods.

- He noted a few ironies of technology spending on many campuses: IT departments spending millions on wireless networks, only to have many professors ban laptops from the classroom; or professors applying for research grants that require high-speed networks without the university making the necessary upgrades to meet the grant requirements."The scope and complexity of the role has really grown," said H. David Lambert, chief information officer of Georgetown University, during a talk at the Educause annual meeting in November. "It's easy to feel some days like I'm not the CIO but the risk-management officer for the institution, because every element of risk management comes back to IT.”new mission-critical services emerge while many older ones remain.
