    Craig,

    Do you remember presenting a podcast on IE radio (Internet Evolution back in March? (http://www.internetevolution.com/radio.asp?doc_id=203722)

    After discussion there, I obtained a copy of your book and have taken WEEKS to work my way through it.

    See review at:
    http://www.linkedin.com/osview/canvas?_ch_page_id=1&_ch_panel_id=1&_ch_app_id=20&_applicationId=1700&appParams={%22view%22%3A%22book%22%2C%22asin%22%3A%220807006165%22}&_ownerId=1517761&completeUrlHash=xuiG

    Have moved-on to “The Shallows” and “Bowling Alone”. Will welcome further pointers as to ‘where next’.

    What do you have planned to follow-up the initial surveys for YaD?
    (am not on Twitter (for ADT reasons!?) and have thus far failed to find a way to receive email alerts for YaD web site updates)

    Regards,
    =dn

      Hello David:

      We are planning for a series of ethnographic case studies as well as some work with middle and high school students in innovative
      learning environments that promote digital media literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving.

    Craig,

    Just read your article on Mobile Phones and America’s Learning Divide. I can not agree more. For the past two years we have been working on bringing open courseware materials to the mobile platform and have had more than 60,000 students use our apps. We are currently turning anroid tablets in affordable education devices and bringing them to students most in need (at under $200).

    Would love to connect with you sometime and get your thoughts on our organization.

    Hi Craig:

    I teach a course called “Society, Technology, and the Future” and thus find your work interesting. I also blog about inequality and steps nonprofits are taking to redress it.

    I think you may find my latest post of particular interest: http://oppforall.com/2011/09/19/comcast%e2%80%99s-half-baked-plan-to-create-greater-equality-online/

    Thanks,
