Well, a few of you know I’m up north doing my first visit to a couple of outposts of our College to run two workshops. Who decided to open these outposts here? (I wonder) I must ask. I’m currently in the second closest Motel to WITT. This has free broadband. More with it than some Continue reading Workshops in New Plymouth Listened to a Podcast last year on Structured Blogging.
