Hope to see all the lovely people I followed back on here regularly :)
#Editors question:
When did the Dominion of Ceylon become Sri Lanka? Even Wikipedia is not really clear - they did independence first, but they changed the name later.
Does anyone know the year of Ceylon becoming Sri Lanka? Was it 1972?

Dear #indexers of #indexodon - since we don't have private DMs on Mastodon (or Post!) yet, or private groups -
I just tested out the idea of the Twitter Circle on Twitter - just a very small place for specifically Canadian indexers. Let me know if you saw the tweet. I've only put a few in because I only know a few of you on Twitter (it's for me having Canadian questions about the business, etc.)
Twitter Circles are private to those the owner put in the circle, no one else sees the replies.
So, I'm finding out the hard way that if you start a new Mastodon server, nobody can find you.
This is a shameless request for some boosts so some of the bigger instances see me.

Why are some peoples' profiles showing up blank (no posts) - but you follow them and you can see them posting - the posts just aren't visible on their profile?
How does that happen?
Might be moving into Information Ethics.
What's happening with the increase in production, storage, sharing, use & requests for "information" is really something, and to preserve humanity we need to fight back against much of it.
Not everything needs to be turned into a piece of information. And not all information is everyone's prerogative.
These are questions that come prior even to issues of privacy.
Information is a commodification of direct experience. It's not = to knowledge.

My video interviews & write-ups of 24 innovators in digital media and learning.
“Digital media and networks can be powerful enhancements — but never a substitute for — a pedagogy that encourages learner agency, co-learning, interest-based and project-centered learning, peer support and networked collaboration.” — Howard Rheingold
