Popplet - a new collaborative (?) Prezi-like workspace

[John Graves]

If eduMOOC wants to experiment with a collaborative, online canvas, Popplet has an interesting offering.

Here is a music video explaining (?) what it is all about:

Here is a link to an eduMOOC Popplet:

Please reply to this post if try the link. Curious to know how it works.

Popplet might be a fun space to play while we go live at:

Seems like a very interesting tool.....but as a high school teacher,
most tools I try to use I try to have my students use. The user
agreement is quite specific about the product not being directed for
those under 18. While I love new tools, I'm not likely to work with
this one because of the age restriction. It's a cool concept, though.

I can see it but I don't seem to be able to get the link on my iPad.  It's a great idea.

Here I have used Popplet as the basis for organizing a Wiki-to-Speech
"lecture" (33 slides) on theory building applied to theories of on-
line learning:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12838403/20110718/learning_theory.htm

If anyone would like to revise / contribute to the presentation behind
this version, the link to the .odp file is:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12838403/20110718/learning_theory.odp

Statistics on this production:
Time to produce: ~3 hours (~180 minutes)
Time to play all 33 slides without pausing: ~7 minutes
Production to playback ratio: ~25 to 1
