Not at all! I like having it "out there." Hopefully people will comment on the VoiceThread itself. The kids would be really tickled.

Any Video Tech's out there?
I have created a Jing screen-video which saved in .swf file. I'm trying to upload it to Ning, but need to convert it first (to .avi or the like). My attempts (using WinAVI and swf2avi) have failed to create a converted video. Is there anyone who knows a better way?
Thanks!
Jim
Thanks!

Hi Purti,
That sounds great! I know the festival of "Makar Sankranti" is coming soon and we are very excited to learn about it. Will it be possible for you to take pictures or videos of the kites flying, and also some pictures of your students with…
I guess the pertinent thing is to discuss at the beginning of the year. If the enthusiasm exists there must be possibilities.
