  • The Moose Has Left The Building ( Sunday, February 24th, 2008)
    Visual Facilitation art by Nancy White Such a high was the 2008 Northern Voice Conference and how quickly it seems gone. By far, this surpasses by experience her two years ago, my first Moose ride. Its as much for the gathering of creative people that seem to be everywhere in Vancouver, the low overhead personal way [...] more »»

  • Jane… er, Google, Stop This Crazy Machine ( Tuesday, February 19th, 2008)
    Even with spam fighting plugins, on a daily basis, I am spending time I’d rather be doing sometime constructive, and deleting, moderating, click through the relentless barrage of blog comment spam. I am feeling like the dutch boy and I am getting weary of trying to hold back the dam. The killer was one that came [...] more »»

  • Be a Blog Mentor for Al Upton’s miniLegends ( Saturday, February 16th, 2008)
    Yesterday I wrote of the power of using twitter as a “CallOut” to get help or participation or just say, “Hey, we’re hanging out over at this cool web place.” And late last night, another example twittered my way- getting a tweet from both Sue Waters and Al Upton. Al does these fantastic web blogging projects [...] more »»

  • When Life Gets Your Down, Despair ( Saturday, January 26th, 2008)
    It has been a loooooong time since I looked at the Demotivational Posters from Despair, which I can remember from way back when the web was young and we spun HTML by hand. For a lover of sarcasm, this is one of the highest art forms, taking potshots at those motivational posters the PHBes put [...] more »»

  • Does Fact Checking Get Tossed with New Scholarship? The Chronicle Thinks So ( Thursday, January 10th, 2008)
    It’s been almost a month since I blogged about the Chronicle of Higher Education, the “flagship” of the ivory tower had published on their web site misinformation that it had scooped from some other blog sites on a story about the 2007 NMC Horizon Report. The Chronicle wrote on December 17 that the 2007 report [...] more »»

  • Yep, More Flickr Love ( Tuesday, January 8th, 2008)
    Oh flickr, how I adore thee! my love runneth over… But after a lot of blog rants, its just so nice to say some nice things about nice people. Nice! I always get extra excited when my RSS feed for comments on my pix lights up in that “unread” color, so I checked out a link today, and [...] more »»

  • 2008/366 SlideFlickred; Me, Y’all Too ( Saturday, January 5th, 2008)
    Thanks to the precedent setting and helpful nudge of D’Arcy Norman (who did this last year), in 2008, I am pledging myself to take and post to flickr every day a photo that best captures what I as doing, or at least what I photographed that day. As D’Arcy notes, it is not easy, but [...] more »»

  • Hoosgot… Lazyweb 2.0? Cool Concept! ( Sunday, December 30th, 2007)
    Wish I had the productivity of Dave Sifry; in his announcement, in 48 hours he rolled out a nifty new twitter/blog crawl mashup called Hoosgot (aka “Who’s Got?”): a simple way to ask who’s got what you’re looking for. Just put “hoosgot” in a blog post or a Twitter tweet and it’ll show up here in [...] more »»

  • Writing for Junior High (and free spam links to boot) ( Friday, December 28th, 2007)
    The blog readability site has plenty of bounces around the blog-o-sphere - plug in a blog URL, and the magical black box somehow comes up with an absolute determination. I am proud to wear by junior high school reading level badge, which means I am certainly writing for an audience that is at a higher [...] more »»

  • Flickr Drops the Hammer on Spammer ( Sunday, December 23rd, 2007)
    Yes another log on the fire for my adoration of flickr. One of my “dogs only” rss feed in my Reader is a watch on my comments in flickr (there is an RSS feed for yourself at http://www.flickr.com/recent_activity.gne?days=2). There is asome bit of ego involved, but mainly so I can reply to comments, yes that [...] more »»
