The history is important and will give other organizations an opportunity to reflect on where they are with respect to the KABT timeline. If the site follows Javon's Paradox, then the economy of the resource will increase its use. That's probably a stretch as an analogy but, like Randy, I find posting more and more on my mind. I keep going back to Brad's comment at Camp Williamson that this format is an opportunity to participate in scholarly activity. I have been facilitating a couple of faculty learning communities the past three years and had been trying to find an easy way to share their research with the broader community which includes current and potential students. Found it! It will be the 21st Century Learning blog at SCCC. Thanks Brad.

The point is that as a user of the KABT blog I have found myself increasingly spending time at this site for assurance that I am teaching biology in an acceptable manner and that I am supporting my fellow biology teachers. Many Thanks -- to these unnamed, but well known pioneers of the electronic media of KABT. I can’t believe I read such a long post.
