Just realized that the "next" bookmarklet for Google Reader lets me read the next link in my subscriptions but looking at the originals rather than in Reader. I had been regretting not seeing blog posts in situ but don't have time to visit all of them each day. This gives me the best of both worlds
I feel very lucky that I get to spend my days with people feeling enabled and inspired by social computing and what it can do for them and their organisations. An excellent day with a group of English local authorities , some of whom have non-trivial barriers to getting involved, has put a spring in my step as they wrestle with the personal and organisational challenges with such enthusiasm!
I wonder how the many people for whom Facebook has been their first experience of online social networking will feel when it inevitably dies under its own weight or gets replaced by something better. Sure there will probably be a hard core of survivors but many will experience for the first time the migration to the next best thing. Be interesting to hear the reactions.
The best bit was catching up with really good people who I really like and the worst thing was not being able to stay for the presentations given by those really good people that I really like!
