Hi all, I am very angry and Ning. Wikieducator is a group of volunteers and worldwide learners. Many companies operate by advertising on the blog (which I think is satisfactory. The ads fit the blog topic and are very proper. Others handle it by having several tiers or layers. ONe offers very acceptable services, but offers a higher number or level of service at a fee.(Surveymonke adds features ie.printed forms and more services, for example. This works out well. By the way, I am looking for persons and institutions in China and Asia working with elderly using technology. Please let me know. I am editing a Journal on this topic.
