Anonymity is one of my biggest problems with the WWW. As crazy as I am about technology, I realize it has allowed us to loose some social graces, e.g. reading body language, maintaing eye contact with speakers, etc. And we have the freedom to speak without face-to-face retribution...not good. Kevin, thank you for your comments-- you provided another great reminder that teaching technology includes substantive discourse on the social and emotional effects of digital ways to communicate.
