I have been looking at lots of blogs lately and the ones from New Zealand seems streets ahead of most I have seen from the UK (the exception being Ewan McIntosh in Scotland who has probably the best education blog in Europe). I am writing to see if any of your students or colleagues might like to give our free maths games a try at www.tutpup.com They are head-to-head simple competitive maths and spelling games. We are still in beta, so the site changes quite often but we have about 30k registered users (mostly in the UK and Asia) but with an increasing number of schools from countries like Australia and New Zealand. I would be very interested in your feedback because I only had a quick chance to test Tutpup in Australia in April while on a quick visit to see my family. Yours sincerely, Richard Taylor Director of Play @ Tutpup Soho W1D 4DT London UK Dear Chrissy,

We need more educators like that! If you're interested, you could take a look at my lecturer's blog: http://communicate.os3.sg/ He's feverently enthusiastic about social media too, so I'm sure you both will have lots to talk about.

I'll plug our web site that has lots of content providers as well as a collaboration center that identifies lots of other teachers who are also looking for connections. See www.cilc.org. In the Keyword box, type in a topic of interest to see what might be available through videoconferencing. Happy hunting.
