Mahara and ePortfolios

Mahara took a while to get my head around and I'm still learning a lot about it. From my understanding, it is an online social networking site for professionals. I can see how it will be useful when I am a qualified teacher. I'll be able to store most of my teaching resources online and keep them organised. I could also add pictures and samples of my lesson plan and how they worked out. This would be great if I am applying for a new job, or just want to keep a record of lesson plans that worked well so I can re-use them in the future. It would also be great if a colleague of my who lives/teaches a long distance away from me, wants a resource that I have, I could give them the secret URL and they would have access to that resource.

I'm sure there are plenty of other uses for Mahara but as I said, I'm still learning about its features.
