I’ve been using Kwout for a while as a way to quote some interesting parts of resources I read online, to add little reminders of cools stuff to my Tumblr or to Flickr.
What a surprise today when I noticed that now we can even annotate in Kwout using a third-party app called canvas.
How cool is it?

There’s not much time to say here everything I’d like to. Too much going on in our session blogging4educators since today we dropped the curtains and our avid participants were already there chatting, interacting and finding themselves around or getting a little lost.
However, I just wanted to keep it registered here something that I find quite amazing and it’s even more clear to me now. For the past year, I’ve been twittering, not so frequently as I wished, but I’m always there through Skype (I get my twitter updates through my skype account) and learning from others. There’s always a resource, a podcast, a blog mentioned by someone in my network that takes me deeper into subjects that I feel like exploring. No, twittering is not shallow. It establishes human contact with powerful mind connections. I guess nobody has the real notion of how it is impacting other people’s lives. Interesting enough that people that I’ve never seen f2f have been giving so many invaluable insights from this brave new online world. Microblogging has proliferated as microspheres of our daily lives in the personal spectrum, as well as professional. It is faster, dynamic, a living thing. I started with Twitter, signed up for pownce, though never used. And just today I checked Gladys Baya’s Tumblr to realize she’s been posting wonderful things there, little treasures of her own. All of a sudden I get to her own world in a different perspective. I’ve been interacting with her so intensely for the past months in preparation to the blogging4educators, but then I stumble into her Tumblr. Suprise. A chest of Gladys’ bits, different from the ones I’m used to, even more complete. Microblogging is another sphere of one’s many facets.
After the pleasant moment of satisfaction to “see” Gladys through different lens, I came across one of her bits that called my attention, kwout. A very cool application and as user-friendly as any web2.0 should be. Thanks, Gladys, for sharing your Tumblr and your other micro-side! Here’s the result of my test with kwout. Just loved it! Microblogging. Connectivity power in a few sentences, fragments of oneself.
