Since we’ve relaunched we’ve had different and new people joining us each week on the Google+ hangout, which is great. This week we had Darren, Marc, Nick and Debs sharing their thoughts and opinions on a range of things including Open Badges (again!), Dropbox alternatives and ‘flipped’ classrooms.
Notes (links and quotations) are below for further investigation:

- “Newsreaders still feel it is worth a special and rather worrying mention if, for instance, a crime was planned by people ‘over the Internet.’ They don’t bother to mention when criminals use the telephone or the M4, or discuss their dastardly plans ‘over a cup of tea,’ though each of these was new and controversial in their day.” (Douglas Adams)

We had a problem with capturing the audio last time around when Doug tried to not only record but stream out the audio. This week we not only managed to sort it properly (thanks Dai!) and also captured the links. Epic win.
