Wikis, Ning communities… it will be interesting to see where 2010 takes me.

Great thoughts regarding informal learning and how to effectively capture the new “aha moments”. I look forward to reading the two (2) posts you mention, and thanks for the links. I look forward to reading them. Let’s keep this topic rolling in 2010, perhaps with our ASTD chapter. I think you have an “in” with the new V.P. of Communications, right?

I do wish to pursuing how best to “memorialize” my informal learning moments as a work-at-home freelancer. My blog is a start! I’m open to additional ideas.

Amen to your “aha”s. Voiceover narration is definitely an art… one that I am continually reminded about with practically each new production.

As for your question about capturing informal learning, I think yes a blog can certainly be an effective method for that. I think, too, it’s what ELSE we bloggers can do with our respective blogs that can also help enhance informal learning. These could include additional widgets, other media, integrated webinars, and so on, that we can use to integrate with other social platforms in order to expand the scope of topics that can be brought in, as well as the scale of people we can include in the discussion.

Finally, of course I’ve written quite often about the activities around Listening and Monitoring the Conversation. I had mentioned recently to a mutual friend of ours (who says he’ll also be launching a blog soon, btw) that Listening is sorta the mortar that binds all those activities together. Analytics, alerts and RSS are just a few ways to quickly effect that with little/no cost.

Great post. Thanks for sharing.
