Plurk enhancements from yesterday
Still finding this handy tool a nice augmentation to the growing micro-blogging networks. Fast ways to connect -- this tool helps it happen in addition to twitter. If you had to pick one, I'd say twitter, however plurk is very intimate with friends gathering around a little conversation like buddies around a summer campfire.

Plurk Firefox Sidebar | Blog on a Stick
For those who are plurking out there, this plurk mobile sidebar makes it easier to have a conversation. I find it interesting that some are just getting used to twitter, however, plurk has the benefit of microconversations. Twitter is just one huge conversation! I enjoy both for different reasons. Somehow plurk feels a little more intimate!

Group Linkrolls - educators | Diigo Groups
The educators group on Diigo now has a linkroll which will allow you to share things. The power of this is that if you are a science teacher, you can filter everything and only share science. Same for all subject areas. I've turned on preapproval for this group to keep the spam out because we are approaching 500 members in this group. Remember, when you bookmark to diigo, check share to a group and then pick educators and at least one standard tag (you can use more.)
