Hi John, these are great videos ! I wonder if in the future there will be any such thing as forgetting – both with neuroscientic research, development of learning technologies along the lines of TEKL http://www.connectivism.ca/?p=181 (and I also think greater understanding of eastern research which will be collated and more available / accessible ) . Maybe forgetting is just another series of patterns of connections and if we combine technologies and our environment we simply move into a different state but not one of forgetfulness ?
