**Poetry: Two Point Oh ** Chris Beckwith, RBMS  Like a signal on FiOS, new technology speeds past us. We see the new toys and we all want the fastest. Teachers are busy, keeping up can be tricky, Portaportals are nice, but should we all have a wiki? We want kids to write and of course to keep reading, But is blogging enough, or should we be tweeting? Our website is Drupal, our classrooms are Moodle, But things seem much smoother with Docs a la Google. We capture with Jing and we’re searching with Bing, If you don’t have a have Facebook, you just might have a Ning. We Skype from afar, we’ve got tags and Delicious, And we’re always amazed at what YouTube can teach us. The state gave us MacBooks, at least they’re not Netbooks, <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 110%; letter-spacing: 0px;">but with everything digital, will kids soon forget books? <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 110%; letter-spacing: 0px;">With iPhones and iPads, we’ve got heads in the cloud, <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 110%; letter-spacing: 0px;">So keep your mind open and you’re sure to be wowed!
