This morning, in between domestic chores, I was following the Twitter
stream generated by the Handheld Learning conference [#hhl09].  The
stream got really interesting when, when Zenna Atkins (Ofsted) was
delivering her presentation.

I copied some of the Twitter and present it below. Important to
remember that each post with be what the individual took or
interpreted from the presentation. They would each be looking through
their own ‘lens’ of interest and experience. Rather that interpret
them again, I will just present them. The full stream is available at
http://twitter.com/#search?q=%23hhl09

I understand that Zenna’s presentation will be uploaded to
