Zaggin when I could be ziggin. Working Out Loud Requires being Vulnerable. Photo by Eric Ziegler. I love listening to Podcasts. I listen to podcasts when I drive to and from work. I listen to podcasts when I am on a long drive - 6 hours. I listen to a broad spectrum of podcasts: Football (soccer), Finance, Economics, News, Public Radio, Social business, etc. This weeks blog is prompted by a one episode I listened to recently from the podcast Shift. Links to this post. Working Out Loud can not be Automated.

http://learningzealot.blogspot.com/2010/11/informal-learning-is-all-negative.html
Real learning is a part of the work, not apart from it. Monday, November 1, 2010. Informal Learning Is Negative Space. Take a pen and a piece of paper out. Look around your desk and identify an item; a stapler, your phone, maybe your monitor. Now begin drawing it. If you’re like me, you immediately focused on the item you chose; its shape, depth, and size. This is known as the Positive Space and is pretty much what a non-artist focuses on; the object.
