Over three years ago I wrote that the future of learning is DIY : With Google you can find most information that you need. Just look at Google Docs, the best and easiest DIY online collaboration suite, in my opinion. I remember using Writely (sold to create Google Docs) and it had a better user interface in my opinion, but was only used by digital savvy folks. MORE
I mentioned that there is an open Google doc listing some of the more well known tweetups and I would share it, so I wanted to post that link and a few others here. This is a crosspost from the Network Weavers Community of Practice! MORE

Rick Klau points [ g+ ] to a feature of Google Docs spreadsheets I didn’t know about (although I’m far from a spreadsheet maven): It can automatically include a table from any HTML document accessible on the Web.

I am doing the keynote on The Evolution of Business at the Melbourne and Sydney events, giving an external perspective which happens to be highly aligned with the Google vision.

Google Docs for quite a while now lets you write your own scripts. This is useful to me because I’m keeping the bibliography for Too Big to Know in a Google spreadsheet. So, I wrote one a year ago that turns the entries in a row in a spreadsheet into some plain old text. When I need to insert a footnote, it’s much easier to run this script and copy the text than it is to click into every cell in a row. MORE
