Back to basics!!!!

I did not realize that many people may not understand the whole concept behind my blogs (specially non-IT). I apologise for my ignorance.

If you are new to "social networking" concepts, then you can go to:
http://www.whatissocialnetworking.com/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_network
Then to read concepts about blogging in schools:http://www.ena.com/news/get_connected_2007_05.html

This is going to be future state in schools and colleges. e.g. many students feel shy in the classrooms or may be hesitant to express themselves and teachers/parent may not know the real reason. At times, it is found that they can express better in writing, hence blogging/community sites/wikis/YouTube/Orkut provide a better opportunity to connect teachers and students together. This is very new in India, but will definitely pickup as internet availability and infrastructure improves in India (it will take its time, but need not be a big bang).
With my blog, I am trying to take some initiatives to educate people that what it really is and how can these tools can help communication among individuals.
