Clay,

Sadly, you weren’t my friend in 2005 else you’d be right in there, teaching us about cutting the crap, schooliness and bullying.

I am working at explaining, promoting and introducing blogging and ICT at my high school in Newmarket ON. Your metaphor will help out a lot. Your visual makes it easier all around to understand the ease of use and the functionality of RSS. Keep up the great work. Brent I really liked your metaphor Dean.

Love the idea. I wish I was a Flash guru so I could turn this into something animated! Hmmm... Isn't there a cartoon maker somewhere that creates Flash-like files for people who are too ignorant to do it right? Great idea, hope you don't mind about 100 people stealing it? Wow. Love the idea.

I've given 3 sessions on RSS feeds to people in our school division at different levels of technical expertise and this description would have made things much clearer for them. I'll piggy back on the idea in future sessions with your permission. By the way I found your blog via a David Warlick podcast which mentioned Anne Davis' blog which linked to this post.

Talk about making teaching come alive. What a great visual to tell the story! Thanks for sharing, Dean. Hmmm. I'm thinking that we need to figure out more ways to let our students use visuals to explain what they are learning. Here we go again with more and more possibilities - it's an exciting time to be teaching and learning! Story telling and visuals.... hmmmm. You have really got me thinking! Thanks for starting my Monday with such an uplifting note! Wow! Talk about making teaching come alive. What a great visual to tell the story! Thanks for sharing, Dean. Hmmm.

I'm also explaining RSS to some teachers in the next couple of weeks and this analogy may make its way into my discussion. And Dave - we'd (meaning me, but I think the other guys would be up for it) would love to get together and talk. Its such a great idea, I know that its going to have to happen!

And a fantastic graphic! I'd love to be at this party. I think I'd end up standing in the doorway keeping my ears perked for everything being said. ;-) Maybe you could invite folks to join you via skype -- that might give it the "personal touch" you were looking for. I know I found my recent experience doing just that to be really energizing for everyone on both sides of the mic. ;-) What a great metaphor!! And a fantastic graphic! I’d love to be at this party.
