I'm very glad to see you here, and fascinated to hear that you learned about it through Twitter. I'm one of the World Cafe people who tweets so I'm curious. Can you tell me more?
And it's wonderful that you're comfortable with this technology - perhaps you'd consider helping someone else who is having a hard time with it here by being their tech "buddy"? If so, just let me know and I'll have our Buddy coordinator match you up.
Suzanne, what a pleasure to have you in this Community and enjoy learning about your experience in South Korea. How did you learn about the World Cafe and its online community?
