I'd love some ideas on organization, getting started etc. Also how
does one use this group for peer review/community review etc?

Great to have another join our small band of merry life long learners.
I believe the idea of the credential will become increasingly
irrelevant. The idea of badges seems to be gaining traction and in the
end its all about personal reputation and the work we have actually
done. And the internet provides no shortage of ways to get our work
into the public domain. I totally agree with your Eric Hoffer
perspective. Just do the work and great things will happen. I really
think writing and publishing often is the key to all this. Engage
people, try to get your work peer reviewed from within your personal
learning network... Great to have you here Jason. Consider creating a
profile on Wikiversity so we can all follow along;
