Right, here is the thing. I’ve set up an online forum for the new knitting group which seemed to be forming all over the place this morning. In the choir, in the pews, in the synod hall, amongst the servers. The talk of knitting was everywhere. Indeed, knitting was being committed during the choir rehearsal at 9:45. I spotted it whilst gazing out from the pulpit whilst having a final look at the sermon.
Here is what I’ve done. I’ve added a Knitting Forum to the cathedral website. Anyone interested, please sign up there.
It is part of a new system I’ve added to the website that I’m hoping will ultimately lead to more online collaboration and also some online courses for people to do. It is running on software called Moodle, which you can look up if you are interested.
I don’t know if this will work, but the knitters may as well be the first to try.
Please sign up using your own name. The web address you need is http://www.thecathedral.org.uk/hub
The knitting forum is obvious. You need an enrollment key to get in. The key is madonna.
Dates for meetings will soon be posted. Expect them to be Monday evenings.
I can not get the system to ask me for the enrolment key. When I click on the key symbol it brings up my profile but no field to add the enrolment key.
It could be the way it is set up – or it could be my jet-lag
After a nights sleep.
The Hub is interesting, must investigate further.
Awwww, good ol’ Moodle, friend of the University student. : )
Knitting group looks like fun. Will pop on over and take a look.

I had a wee look at Moodle, looks like a nice piece of software, might be something for other churches to take up in similar circumstances.
