I’m wondering if we will ever see Larry on Twitter or he will actually start communicating with me using IM (Skype or Google Talk). mmmm will have to wait and see

Thanks for the coverage Larry. TokBox actually supports as many people as you wish to conference with… as many as you can handle at a time. So far, we’ve seen more than 25 simultaneous calls going on one multi-party call.

As a senior engineer, I’m happy to answer any more questions you have about us.

This is Zohair from Dabbleboard. Larry, I think The Broth has a completely different target market: artwork. The purpose of Dabbleboard is to help us think and communicate visually, and the UI has been designed with this in mind.

That said, let us know what specific features you’d like to see added to Dabbleboard, and we’ll do our best to meet your needs.

Great new resource. As always, thanks.

Might I add the excellent uStream.tv site? But you do need a free account.

Also check out Orgoo chat, which works without any accounts.

Good Afternoon Larry,

I have a question concerning Virtual Reality Development Labs. I went to a seminar a few months ago, and they had a company that was giving demos of their Virtual Reality in a educational setting, and I found it amazing. It was like I was really in this place being able to turn in all different directions as it described what I was looking at. They offered really good priced kits for teachers so they could do their own teaching environments and curriculum.

My questions for you is, how are we able to get our schools to look into this type of teaching? I have a daughter that loves computers and technology, and if she had the means to learn this way I think it would be amazing. If I could have learned this way years ago I think I would have applied myself much more throughout the years.

My second question is what is the difference between online learning games and Virtual Reality Education besides of course the realism factor?

Amazed Mom,

Jennifer

Lots of good information. A lot of hard work on your part!
Very useful for a teacher of ELL students.

I wanted to say that Larry’s lists are always the best. I of course recommend Learning Vocabulary Fun (aka http://www.vocabulary.co.il) as a premier ESL site. With a blog too!

Hi Larry - Sorry for the upload problem on Bookgoo. We have corrected. Things should be working properly now. Give it a try and let me know if you encounter any additional problems.

The Bookgoo experience is quite a bit different than the Awesome Highlighter. We actually take a snapshot of the web page and then allow other users to highlight and annotate that document as well; or comment on other user annotations. We also allow users to upload other document types - PDF, Word, Excel, images, etc.

Please try it out and give us your feedback. If you have features that you would like to see, please let us know. We are very interested in adding features that would help the education community.

updated my feed
great and useful blog.
bye from Italy

Larry, here’s a good one…

The Olympic Museum (in Lausanne) has a wealth of educational resources. Just click and download.Here is the education page…

Here is one for Bejiing but lots of history. It is a dud to visit though …. I’ve spent a lot of time in Lausanne and everything about it is great EXCEPT this museum.

Lots there but I’d also get students choosing countries and modifying the country project materials on EFL Classroom 2.0 . Instead of the regular country report — they have to report on a countries athletes….

I’ll be making a post about it on EFL classroom shortly, as soon as the enthusiasm mounts! I also have a super slide show forthcoming….
