The definition of PLE I feel more connected to, is from Attwell, when he states that PLEs are the comprise of all the different tools we use everyday for learning formally and informally. Does this mean its every tool I use? Well...yes, why not? It seemed somewhat confusing and disperse the first time I thought about it, but after I tried to build up my own PLE by using Netvibes to aggregate all the feeds from the web places I was learning from or thought I would learn from, I began to understand how important was the idea of "all the different tools we use everyday". I felt that the Netvibes was one more tool, but not 'the' tool. I imagine a PLE as more organic, with an easy flow between the web references and tools I choose to aggregate and use. But as a teacher, I see Netvibes as one great tool to help me organize and aggregate content to share online with students.
To be more organic nowadays, I believe the person needs to be an excellent user of the tools. Maybe in a close by future, that excellence won't be necessary to go with the flow of online connected knowledge!
[Art Education is the topic for inquiry for me to build my PLE, in the PLEK12 course.]
I also consider Twitter as one of the most important tools for my PLE. From my timeline I can see, in real time, what my gurus (and my teachers and friends) are saying about what, what they are publishing, talking about. Twitter is, for me, something like a mico/macro solar system, a place where I can jump from one resource to another, from one person to another, and where I can find great things!
