The one thing that is not obvious is to get your assignments emailed you need to check the settings to receive them in your settings, the defaults won't result in this. Also, for the posts to be mailed, you need to add them as assignments and not as calendar events. The good news is that my kids love it, and when the school web site goes down, they have a back-up!

I really appreciate it. We are so close to launching, just trying to make it as rock solid as possible before the launch. We are humbled by all the enthusiasm surrounding edmodo and are trying to make the best tools we can for teachers. -Jeff http://edmodo.com Steve, thanks for writing a great post about edmodo.

I signed up for the e-mail updates and can't wait to see when it is "live" for everyone. :) Looks like a great new tool and I think it will blow twitter away.

The value of any social network is its users so even if something better came along it would be hard to switch. However for the classroom this looks like a more useable option.

I've been waiting (not as long as you) and can't wait to see what it is like. I'm not sure how ready our teachers would be out here in Western New York, but I can't wait to see what this is like. Thanks for all the tweets on Twitter. Go Duke! Steve,
