SignWriting List May 4th, 2010 I just tried to post a message to the SignWriting List about this, so if you get doubles please forgive...I am not sure why it didn't seem to post on my end... There is already a SignWriting Facebook page that was not started by me......smile...but of course I am grateful to all those who did, and to all those who have written so much about SignWriting on that Facebook page - quite amazing! SignWriting Facebook Page http://www.facebook.com/pages/SignWriting/103994762968944?ref=ts There is also a SignWriting Interest Group on Facebook which I believe Charles Butler founded? thank you Charles! That is really exciting... SignWriting SWIG on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=10910155309 So just go to Facebook and search for SignWriting and start joining and posting ...that might help a lot... Meanwhile... I already have a Facebook page for Valerie Sutton... for at least a year if not longer...but guess what? There are over 99 Valerie Suttons on Facebook!...I never realized how many people are named Valerie Sutton, but there are a lot of them...So if you try to find me it might be hard...grin... So Maria - do you have a Facebook page? I will look now....smile... Val ;-) ----------- On May 4, 2010, at 11:53 AM, MARIA AZZOPARDI wrote: > I was thinking the other day, that maybe you could start a SignWriting > Group on Facebook - people could post things in sw as pictures, discuss > etc - and at least we could put a face to the people who use signwriting, > it might help to give the feeling of community. > maria > > >> SignWriting List >> May 3, 2010 >> >> Here is a photo taken in Jamaica showing how they beamed Skype onto a >> projector screen displayed on the wall...That is me, presenting ;-) and I >> never left my office - so amazing ....this kind of presentation can be >> done more for SignWriting...we might even be able to have group meetings >> using Skype, presenting to each other, all by computer - in small >> groups... >> >> I am trying to think through how we could develop better tech support for >> all SignWriting users...and to develop more of a feeling of community >> too...bringing SignWriting users closer together, and giving a meeting >> place online...There is also new software called "GoToMeeting"...have any >> of you used that before? if you have any ideas, please share with us here >> on the SignWriting List ... how would you like to use this new technology >> to help you and your students and friends with SignWriting? >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> On May 1, 2010, at 8:08 AM, Valerie Sutton wrote: >> >>> SignWriting List >>> May 1, 2010 >>> >>> Hello Everyone! >>> >>> Regarding this DanceWriting presentation on Skype, to a dance conference >>> in Jamaica yesterday... >>> >>> It went very well.
