  • 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 »»

  • See “The Rim” with Google Maps Terrain View ( Tuesday, November 27th, 2007)
    The word is out and another linktribution for Tim Lauer- Google Maps has replaced the hybrid map view (satellite imagery with roads on top” with a new button- “terrain” which shows topography and landforms in a shaded relief image. But hey, dont go scanning some place like southern Illinois (no offense, but that is some [...] more »»

  • NMC: 50 Web 2.0 Ways To Tell a Story ( Thursday, November 8th, 2007)
    Here I get to try and blog my own presentation (?). 50 Web 2.0 Ways to Tell a Story presentation by Alan Levine at NMC Regional Conference at Tulane. So this is not a detailed blog coverage- pretty much as I said in the talk, the entire pile of stuff is freely, openly available for use, [...] more »»

  • The Web 2.0 Laundry List is Us/ing Me ( Sunday, September 9th, 2007)
    I am in the one month scramble the jets mode to get ready for my Australian tour where I hope to avoid any street protesters nor tangle up anyone’s traffic with my motorcade. I had put some thought around how to do a Web 2.0 workshop that is not the typical ed-tech geek approach of spraying [...] more »»

  • What’s That Google Calender Doing in My MediaWiki? ( Thursday, August 30th, 2007)
    Like Duvall’s Kilgore, who said “there’s nothing like napalm in the morning”, for a web geek, there’s nothing like a bit of curious fiddling with code to make something work. Today’s feat was finagling a MediaWiki extension to display a Google Calendar in our sites. I’ve been using GCal for a year to manage our Second [...] more »»

  • Fishing for Web 2.0 Gems, Not Laundry Lists ( Wednesday, August 15th, 2007)
    I think I have a new mode of developing my workshops and presentations, which of course, does not involve crafting it way ahead of time– but rather than doing my planning, and taking my best shot at it, I am now just tossing out some half baked ideas, picking up feedback/suggestions, and asking people to [...] more »»

  • Reading Across or Reading Down Feeds ( Friday, August 10th, 2007)
    Ah, my poor RSS Reader, not nearly given the devoted attention once reserved for it. Maybe a year, maybe two ago, I’d focus on at least scanning all my sources and marking them read by end of the day, even if it was in one fell keyboard stroke. That was BT (Before Twitter), BSL (Before Second [...] more »»

  • Sick Mashup ( Monday, July 16th, 2007)
    No, this is not something to gross you out. Who is Sick is a mashup of google maps and people’s self reports of their illness– it provides some data so supposedly you could find out if that queasy feeling in your stomach is…. well something a lot of people in the hood are keeping [...] more »»

  • HeyJude Again! Tweets Me to TouchGraph ( Friday, July 13th, 2007)
    Wow, it was yesterday that a tweet from HeyJude lead me to vodpod… today she does it again! Today’s tweet from her led me to TouchGraph GoogleBrowser, a web/java application that generates a visual relation map for web sites or searches based on Google data. Well, I think that is what it does. The site [...] more »»

  • Sweet Serendipity! From Tweet to Slideshare to Vodpod ( Thursday, July 12th, 2007)
    I love it when curious link clicking reveals unknown gems! It happened again just an hour ago, with the result of a great video collection tool. Almost by sheer accident- discovered following a tweet by Judy O’Connell to her web 2.0 presentation on Slideshare, that I came across this nifty new site, vodpod. Here you can [...] more »»
