We are meeting for three days on "New Learning for Sustainability in the Arab Region" and have had some excellent contributios which for many people were completely new.

Right now I am in an unworkshop with Vance Stevens, called "FUN Fair" where Vance has us in Second Life walking around with a friend from the British Council, and taking us into other collaborative spaces. We have a very mixed group, some know more about these tools, like Buthaina, of course, and others were introduced to a blog for the first time. It has been wonderful to meet Buthaina in person (photos coming) and to meet Vance, working in Abu Dhabi, who was recommended for this workshop by Jay.

Looking forward to meeting you in person in, Alexandria, Egypt...
