#EDENchat, the fortnightly tweet-chat run as part of the European Distance and E-learning Network (EDEN) and coordinated by friend of #LTHEchat Steve Wheeler (@stevewheeler AKA @timbuckteeth), usually takes place at the same time as #LTHEchat. But last night, prompted by this tweet by Simon Horrocks:
Anyone up for an impromptu, off piste, rebel alliance #LTHEchat?
— Simon Horrocks (@horrocks_simon) March 23, 2016
a rebel alliance was spontaneously formed and #LTHEchat tweet-jacked #EDENchat.
Sounds like a plan! Watch out @timbuckteeth & #EDENchat, the #LTHEchat rebel alliance are coming your way… https://t.co/QBMKXJRq5B

The #EDENchat was entitled Which learning technologies? and the topic was very complementary to what we usually discuss on #LTHEchat. There must have been an equal thirst for their Wednesday chat ‘fix’ because a number of #LTHEchat regulars joined us, and a splendid time was had by all.
In the end, the resulting discussion was of benefit to both communities:
Time has beaten us again. Thanks to all who participated in tonight’s #EDENchat and thanks to #LTHEchat for amplifying the discussion!

#LTHEchat will officially return with a new team and a new topic on Wednesday 6th April at 8:00 pm BST (GMT+1). In the meantime, if you want to chat next week, we could open the channel for a free-for-all. Let us know, in the comments or on twitter using hashtag #LTHEchat if you want to do this.
