Aaron Ross commented on Eytan London's blog post Twitter- not for me
"With regard to twitter as a way to develop one's PLN, see my post here: http://jewishedd.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html - I think that hashtags and their ability to expand your circles to include people and topics that you never…"

Aaron Ross commented on Laurence Scheindlin's blog post Khan Academy--Part One

Chag kasher v'sameach to you as well!  What are you doing now?  Somewhere along the line I lost track of where you are working.

I am still in Yavneh - now assistant principal in the Middle School.  I finished my doctorate at Azrieli about 3 years ago and have been raking in the big bucks ever since (OK, maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration).
