After a quiet experience on my last visit to Ceduna this time was a lot more successful. I had been invited to provide training at the local community library on Web 2.0 technologies. Staff had been seeking funding to travel to Adelaide for separate training so I was most happy to be able to help them receive this training in house.
The 4 hour session involved discussions and demonstrations on:
- Blogs
- Wiki
- Flickr
- Podcasts
- Flock
- Ning
- Twitter
- LinkedIn
- Facebook
- Second Life
- Rollyo
Whilst I was in town I visited the local Ceduna Council and discussed issues they had relating to broadband infrastructure and services with their CEO, Tony Irvine and several Councillors. Then I visited the Indigenous Co-ordination Centre (ICC) and met with Kerrie Harrison who was eager to have me return and provide up to date information on broadband technologies with several of the local indigenous communities.
All in all it was a very successful trip and I look forward to returning and developing better outcomes for the ICC in regards to their use of broadband services.
