This week on the Web

Here are a few more resources I came across this week, taken from the c4lptnews.

First a couple of Twitter articles:

• Nine great reasons why teachers should use Twitter by Laura Walker
• The Hierarchy Of Tweets - Analysing The Psychology of Twitter

If yu are looking for further articles on Twitter, take a look at my Twitter recommended reading list.

Other articles:

• Computer World (as other places) reports that Microsoft is to shut down Encarta Web sites.

• ReadWriteWeb discusses Dimdim's latest version 5: Speed, Security and Widgets

• Janet Clarey, of Brandon Hall, shares the slides and notes from her recent webinar, SMBs and Social Learning Technologies - very comprehensive as usual

And there were a couple of new tools, which I thought looked interesting, but more on them next week!
