Why I don't like using me2u?
By Thomas Sheppard January 12, 2008 - 8:13am Comments (4)
I am not pleased that all the postings I worked on in my last MDDE course (April-July 2007) are gone. I read Terry Anderson's explanation but I am still ticked off. I was willing to work in this environment and be patient while waiting for improvements (e-potfolio looks interesting), but if I put a lot of time and effort into posting on the blog and changing settings I want to see it when I come back after taking a term off. I am not pleased. I'll be using my Blogger account from now on, while looking for a better blogging and social software platform.

Dear Thomas,
I think there must be a way of saving those comments or storing them in a way that they can be archived. I agree with you -- that it seems important to have a working and ongoing social network and that your hard work is important. Thanks for your posting. Jo Ann
I won't repeat my apologies for the loss of data from last year. But it won't happen again. The system is now a part of the single login (the reason for the loss) as people's login names changed).
But Thomas, do feel free to have me2u inport your postings from Blogger, so that your AU colleagues can benefit from your insights.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll give it another try and see what happens. I am really interested in the eportfolio part as well.
Hi again Thomas. I just noticed that the old version of me2u is still available (links from the bottom of the main welcome page). So it is possible to login to the old version - using your former login name and passwoprd and cut and paste entries from the past. A pain and gets the dates
screwed up, but it may be worth it for particular valued posts.
Cheers
Terry
