Drape's Takes: A Refreshing Look At Networked Learning

It is time to toss out the “blog, wiki, podcast” mantra. This is bigger than tools isolated for singular purpose.

Your Facebook Profile Isn't Really "You" - ReadWriteWeb
An interesting study about whether the "you" on Facebook is really you.
-
Psychology professor Samuel Gosling and collaborator David Evans created the "You Just Get Me" Facebook application and web site, where users could answer forty questions about their personality and then compare their answers to how others view them. The users would rate each other based on these answers, letting their first impressions be their guide. People could be rated as anything from lazy to ingenious to quiet or rude or any of several other unique personality traits.
Surprisingly, answers to most of the basic type of questions, like those found on social networking sites, did not help users figure out what each other were "really" like. Instead, the researchers found that when a user posted things on their profile like their most embarrassing moment, proudest moment, or spirituality, their personalities were much better understood.
