Alumni networks ? LinkedIn or university-run portals?

I’ve just taken over as the new leader of the alumni board here at UiB, and am busy finding out more about the ongoing work with alumni here and thinking about what the potentials are. Our alumni work only started up a few years ago, and the idea is still very new to most people here ? not just at UiB but in Norway in general. Our universities are publicly funded, so the goals of alumni work are different from in countries like the US, where universities rely on donations. Here alumni work...

where is??

I have so many things I want to blog and can’t find the time to do it. Most disheartening.

Meanwhile, here is one of those charming little poems Google sometimes generates for you when you start typing a search phrase into the browser window.

Now I just have to remember what I was REALLY searching for. Nothing on this list ? I think!?

Oh, and just for the sake of research: how personalised is this? I don’t recognise any of it, but maybe it’s somehow connected to  my Google + friends and my...
