Have you figured out yet that I am madly in love with the mind of John Green?
Mental floss on YouTube. Just my thing. Those kind of random, weird, but strangely addictive pieces of useless information that make for the most interesting discussion fodder. I wish John Green lived next door to me. We’d have a lot in common. I’d invite him over for a cuppa or glass of wine and I’m sure we’d laugh into the wee hours. I’ll just have to get my dose of John Green via YouTube, cuppa or glass of wine in hand. I’ll laugh by myself, and maybe leave a comment on YouTube. If you’re anything like me, you’ll subscribe to Mental Floss on YouTube, and the videos might just be some of the most entertaining parts of your week.
Off to bed for me. I’ve just posted this tweet on Twitter.
Sometime, over the last week, I sent out my 20,000th tweet. The last five years here have been the best prof. develop. I’ve had. And all free.
Some of you might be thinking that I’ve wasted a lot of time on Twitter. Nothing could be further from the truth. The learning made possible from the network there has been a decisive part of my growth as an educator. I’m forever grateful to Clay Burell for introducing me to his network and supporting me in my early days there. You were very generous Clay – I am indebted to you.
Have a wonderful weekend. The weather looks good for Melbourne, and I intend to spend some time outdoors appreciating it. I hope you have a similar outlook where you live. 🙂

So right Jenny. I’m forever telling colleagues to get on board with twitter. With out a doubt it’s been the best career development decision I’ve ever made. Will check out some more mental gloss too. What a hoot!
Yes, people don’t realise what they’re missing out on!
Hello! I’m a student in EDM 310 at the University of South Alabama in Mobile in the United States. I also love John Green and how he thinks. The idea of the Mental Floss videos is great! I agree with you on the applications of Twitter. I think it will become a valuable tool in my career!
