After the failed Etherpad attempt to meet the group decided that it would be a good idea to try to meet again but this time use Skpe as the online networking tool. We thought Skype might be slightly more reliable and that it was! We had to meet later in the evening because one of our group members is based in Darwin and we needed to accomodate the time difference.
I was a little concerned about our RedPod formation as we have five members, Myself, Lesley, Liz, Ben and Shin. I had not had any previous contact with Shin, nor had I seen her on the CSU Forum, in fact, the only way I learnt of Shin's existence was when the groups were formed and that name was on the list. Nevertheless, not wanting to exclude any of our members from meeting we decided to post our intention to meet on the CSU forum for which, Ben was unable to attend and we did not hear anything once again from Shin.
During this meeting Liz, Lesley and I discussed how we would approach the task. We decided to form a group blog (using wordpress) as a colloborative tool. We also decided to each take one online networking tool each (for example, skype, second life, facebook etc) and using the assignment questions as a guide research that particular networking site and post our findings to the group blog. Lesley kindly offered to set up the group blog.
Having feeling as though we accomplished something tonight we left with plans to meet again in the near future to discuss progress.
