[jeremy hunsinger]

One of our members and my coeditor of a forthcoming special issue on Learning in Virtual Worlds, Aleks Krotoski has been working on this TV documentary about the internet revolution that will be shown starting next week, Jan. 30 on bbc2 . 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/digitalrevolution/  is the url of the website.

I thought some of you might be interested if you'd not already discovered it via twitter or facebook or....  

I think Aleks and her colleagues took on quite a task with this production and from what I've seen above, it is quite excellent in raising both awareness and raising questions, they should be congratulated.    I'm sure everyone will find something to critique in it, which makes it even better in my mind:)  

Thanks to Aleks and her colleagues:)
