Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
(start with TV announcer voice): Previously… on Lost. Just kidding. Previously on this blog, I wrote of my dilemma at home of dealing with a giant unorganized stack of digital photos. In cleaning out my office at Maricopa, I had a similar problem, but here, at least, I had a spare 240 Gb LaCie FireWire […]
Like thousands, tens of thousands, maybe just short of McDonald’s order of magnitude (Billions and Billions) of other people, I am feeling the gaping information void of Stephen Downe’s hiatus. OLDaily been a mainstay of my ed tech input for so long I cannot remember, and it was Stephen’s work that opened my eyes to […]
Where did all the conversations go about “EduGlu” apps? Maybe people are doing it rather than writing about it… Well, here is a nice example from the Maricopa trenches– Shelley Rodrigo teachers a Cinema Class at Mesa Community College and has pretty much set up her class across a trio of Web X.0 tools. The […]
flickr foto Another Project, Another Dayavailable on my flickr This stack of 70+ CDs now hides in my home office closet. It represents my archive of personal photos going back to maybe 2000. Since iPhoto (older version) gets fussy with more than 500 photos, and is really groaning the drive on my old 700MhZ iBook […]
flickr foto Wow, This Web Thing Might be BIGavailable on my flickr Our site got featured in one of the early books about the web, The World Wide Web Unleashed by John December (1994). As I winnow down the last 2 weeks on the job at Maricopa, I am unearthing a lot of nostalgic artifacts […]
flickr foto Fir and Snowavailable on my flickr I’ve just returned from a week’s hideaway at our cabin in Strawberry, AZ. I deliberately left the computers at home, and this was my longest offline experience in 5 or 6 years. The first few days were a bit shakey, and the sweats and convulsions were intense. […]
I am working on getting over my podcast malady. For the past few years, two of our faculty that teach a semester-long class in digital storytelling have provided the same experience in compressed form for faculty as a 40 hour “Bringing Digital Storytelling to the Classroom LearnShop”. I started hovering in the August 2004 session […]
flickr foto Shuffle Come Homeavailable on my flickr For weeks I was sure I had lost my iPod Shuffle… and today I found it stuck in the pocket of a pair of pants I had not worn in weeks. Charge up, little iPod, we got some running to do! Lost, now found. I was conviinced […]
Since not long after the day in October 1993 when a colleague handed my a floppy disk (remember those?) labeled “Mosaic”, our office has had a continuously running web server. We have gone through several iterations of trying to build collections of web resources for educators, and in going through some old files, I got […]
Small, insignificant observational note of no consequence: In my two podcasting demos this week for faculty and staff at our colleges, I showed as a video example an episode from the TV show Lost that I had bought on the Apple Store for $1.99. Before I showed a small bit of it, I asked how […]
