In my previous items on a Filling station model of e-learning I've suggested that portable devices are beginning to offer functionality and utility undreamed of even a couple of years ago. The UK's Guardian Online article You can take it with you (2 Dec 2004) highlights the possibilities offered by the humble USB or thumb drive. It's well worth a read. For you Star Trek fans (or haters) out there it wasn't so long again we laughed at ridiculous devices Mr Spock et al were plugging into their ears or tablet devices. Now where's that Bluetooth headset? Has anyone seen my 2GB usb drive? 🙂
