I had the pleasure of speaking recently with virtual community pioneer Howard Rheingold about the new Social Media Classroom platform he has launched. Anyone who has read Howard’s work or heard him speak before knows that he always has interesting things to say. This is no exception. Listen in to find out what’s up with the Social Media Classroom platform (built on the open source CMS Drupal) and also to hear Howard’s thoughts on the current state of “media literacy” in the world.
