The Higher Education blog for Scotland North and East recently hit it's 100th post. Since its first post in May last year a wide variety of topics have been covered from the analysis of research publications, interviews with noted academics and tips on how to enhance teaching and learning using a range of tools and techniques.

For it's 100th post MASHe highlighted how a simple ‘mashup’ of twitter and Yahoo Pipes could be used as a free electronic voting system. This post has kindly been highlighted in [Seb Schmoller’s Forthnightly Mailing](http://fm.schmoller.net/2009/09/using-twitter-and-yahoo-pipes-for-electronic-voting-by-martin-hawksey.html) and [Jane Hart’s Social Media in Learning blog](http://janeknight.typepad.com/socialmedia/2009/09/twevs.html), which has resulted in a small flurry of ‘retweets’ as others pick up on the idea.
