Yesterday at the JTEL WinterSchool in Innsbruck, Erik Duval asked me
If you only could follow one person on Twitter, who would that be?
I gave my answer (which I cannot tell you here…) and thought it would be a cool thing to explore with a wider public. That’s why I put up a really simple questionnaire over at Google Spreadsheets and would be really happy if you could distribute it to your fellow Tweeple.

The first day of the JTEL WinterSchool is almost over (we’re in the socialising event with iPod disco right now) and the event is already worth the travel. Innsbruck is not covered in snow, so we will focus on the actual work 
Today we had 3 (more or less interactive) talks by Dai Griffiths, Jon Dron, and Marie Joubert that had the overall topic of Orchestrating Learning and Services Used. Gai did an good overview to SOA, WS-* and the applications in industry and learning (have a look at the eFramework) and Jon asked us to think about the possible education use cases of a wooden stick. That was really great fun. The last lecture by Marie covered the tasks of the STELLARnetwork of excellence and what orchestration of learning really means. She asked four questions that you always should keep in mind during your Ph.D. research:
- What are you researching?
- How are you researching?
- For what reason are you researching? and
- What is going to provide evidence for your research?
The attendees are very active in the social semantic web and thus the Twitter channel for the #jtelws2010 hashtag is very active.
I created a Twitter list for the attendees of the WinterSchool at http://twitter.com/wollepb/jtelws2010 which will be extended as soon as I spot new Tweeple here.
Here are some early statistics: 160 tweets tagged with #jtelws2010 from 27 different users. Here is a wordle of the first (Twitter) day:
