The eTwinning PDW in Belfast was a great success. I really enjoyed it.

I have posted the photographs on my school site www.sasns.ie with a link to the school’s Flickr account for one week only.

The entire photo set will be published on the http://slua.com site after Christmas so the thumbnails may not work in 2009.

I hope to post them here shortly if there are no objections.

The netbook I used was a Medion Akoya runing Windows XP Pro SP2 available on a regular basis from Aldi at €395 including a 3 year warranty. I generally use online remote storage and applications as aften as possible (cloud computing – the new buzz word). However, I regularly fall back on the 80 GB harddrive if broadband connectivity is not available. Fortunately, the Radisson came up trumps.

ScoilNet coordinator, Patrick Coffey, offered to carry news of eTwinning events on the ScoilNet electronic newsletter.
