Who doesn’t like tools? This is a first response to brotherly DHLCommons “hangout” on Monday with Jim Groom, Alan Levine and Howard Rheingold.

This is meant as a spectator event to introduce DML Commons and explain the Landing Page for the website. The first half hour includes a very interesting discussion of connected, digital scholarship and how we can use blogs to discover and create communities.

The second half of the conversation is a description and explanation of the DML Commons landing page, which you can find at www.dmlcommons.net.

Here’s a link to my notes on the video – a kind of summary really, using Videonot.es plug in for GoogleDocs, (Opens in a new window. Install the videonot.es plug in to view, from GooglePlay).

Videonot.es is a video annotation package that’s really nice for keeping track of what people say on video.

Enjoy!
