Note: This was written shortly after I heard Dr. Michael Wesch, anthropology professor and digital learning giant, speak at the BLC10 November 10 conference in Boston. I was a presenter and also led two workshops. This wasl also posted  on http://novemberlearning.com/blog/ and http://digitalteachers.net .,YWP's teacher site.

Michael Wesch - Pop!Tech 2009 - Camden, MEAt various times in Michael Wesch's presentation on Thursday, I felt alternately inspired, wowed, encouraged, thrilled and out-of-date, inadequate, woefully behind and, frankly, not as smart as I thought I was. Way not smart. I found myself wanting to create a video that would go viral, to redoing all our software so it could be half as cool or to help students create a project that would change  the world.
