Goodbye, Serbia…and Goodbye, ePals

ePals has a “Big Brother” approach to collaboration. They don’t allow teachers to pass information leading to collaboration in the non-ePals (and free web 2.0) real world. Their monitors actually block any teacher emails including wiki or non-ePals blog URLs and email addresses.

It’s a shame. Serbia wanted to play.

So much for ePals. Any enterprising types out there want to show them how to do it right?
