Who is my audience and what is my purpose?

There are so many tech buzzwords flying past my ears these days: tweeting, blogging, Google Apps, Google Drive, Google Forms, scripts, QR codes, one-to-one, BYOD, ... the list goes on.  As I step on the gas to try to stay up to speed, I can't help but wonder when these terms will take their exit and I'll find myself trying to merge with the next big apps and advancements.  How can we teachers ever stay ahead of our students when Flappy Birds is up, crazed over, and out before I can even make up my mind to download it?

So maybe this is my attempt to reach out to others on this road and join the caravan down this expanding highway.  On the way I hope to archive what will soon become obsolete artifacts, explore literacy-linked side roads, and be ready for what's around the next bend.
