The full email archives are of course available <a href="http://www.downes.ca/cgi-bin/archive.cgi" rel="nofollow">here</a> and so of course you can see how the content has change over time. But in that time the <a href="http://www.downes.ca/news/about_old.htm" rel="nofollow">publication statement</a> has barely changed - you can see the stroked-out version removed in 2001 when I go my current position and no longer needed financial support.<br /><br />In 2006 I returned with a desire to be a bit more analytical in my posts, adding more content and not just information. But really, the length and content-selection parameters have barely changed over that time. Topics, obviously, have shifted - I did a lot of work on LMSs, learning objects and standards in the early 2000s, more on social networks in the mid- to late-2000s, and of course MOOCs and open online learning over the last few years.<br /><br />But I think a reader would see a clear and consistent track throughout, framed in approach by the publication statement, and in content by <a href="http://www.downes.ca/future/" rel="nofollow">The Future of Online Learning</a> and <a href="http://www.downes.ca/wired/conclusion.htm" rel="nofollow">The Rise and Fall of Wired</a>.<br />Stephen Downeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06140591903467372209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11679714.post-81130539476269078002014-04-15T14:44:15.418-04:002014-04-15T14:44:15.418-04:00I remember the 2006 hiatus Stephen and how 'sh...I remember the 2006 hiatus Stephen and how 'shocked' I was. My thought was 'Now how will I keep up to date with what is going on'. So thanks for your ongoing persistence and efforts.Jenny Macknesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03245588576461411688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11679714.post-65249121908202453482014-04-15T14:21:16.044-04:002014-04-15T14:21:16.044-04:00Your level of commitment and focus is inspiring, S...Your level of commitment and focus is inspiring, Stephen. I w/d be interested in learning how your approach has changed over time. Do you set information consumption constraints? Are you driven by weekly goals? <br /><br />Cheers.Sebastienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05937355787542678194noreply@blogger.com
