Allan,

We should create a group over at teacher tube for our twiitter screencasts

They sort of remind of those videos of birds created for cats …

First, The Clapper is a boon to mankind. Especially the later versions that feature TWO outlets that are activated separately by two or three claps. That really opens up the possibilities. I run everything in my house off my elaborately networked system of Clappers, everything from the blender that mixes up my healthful maternal milk smoothies to my Shrine to Sammy Davis Jr that utilizes a looping video of him singing “Mr. Bojangles” (I cry everytime I hear it, even after tens of thousands of listens and subsequent crying jags.) I spend so much time clapping that I’ve started listening to a lot of flamenco music so my clapping can have a more festive air.

Second, Cole perpetuates the unfair reputation of crack. Nothing jumpstarts my day and puts a smile om my face like smoking a big rock.

Finally, my twiter is built-in with my speakers, and works perfectly fine, I’ve never gave it a seconds thought. I do sometimes wish I could buy a sub-woofer, because I do love my heavy bass on “Mr. Bojangles”.

Here’s the crazy thing, I can communicate so much more efficiently in 140 character sound bites than ever before!
