You gotta celebrate the small things, right? Self high-fiving for figuring out MySQL query to delete 16,000 un-needed categories from the ds106 site. — Alan Levine (@cogdog) January 6, 2016 What I will detail may likely benefit no one else beyond me should I ever lose my notes. But, writing about the process is… well […]
This web site is starting to shape up. Today we got in place all the pages, many of them placeholders, for Western 106.

The DS106 Daily Create started January 8, 2012 in a site originally created and maintained by Tim Owens. I took it over a few months later when I went to teach/work at the University of Mary Washington, and populated/tended it until late July 2014.
