PLN Show and Tell was intended to be co-hosted with Benjamin Stewart (TILL, Teachers for Interactive Language Learning) Sunday September 8 2013 at 1400 GMT but Benjamin got sick and had to bow out; however the Learning2gether community gathered largely thanks to notices being disseminated by Google+ communities, an illustration of PLN in action

In Hangout: What does your PLN currently look like?  How do you manage it, and why?
