Do you really buy into that old fable? Slow and steady wins the race? Maybe for foot races, but for a web server, I want it all hare speed. Make that flare speed. Both CogDogBlog and ds106 (we are neighbors on the server farm) were suffering recently from the dreaded “over usage of resources”. Thanks […]
It’s great to see a lot of folks taking up the Tate Museum 1840s GIF Party, as a ds106 assignment, and on giffight. I could not rest without finding one more to do. Walter Richard Sickert saw the typical tranquility of a French street scene in Café des Tribunaux, Dieppe, only missing the smell of […]

I really prefer being behind the camera, but when I visited Jonathan Worth in November, how could I refuse his offer to have my portrait taken? I mean he is a pro photographer, and does his craft via a medium format film camera? Yes, Jonathan, I like it! I really really like it. It wont […]
February 13, 2014 is World Radio Day a UNESCO Project aimed at making the world aware of the power of radio as a platform for change. Via our friends at SourceFabric (makers of the open source Airtime software), ds106 radio is going to be part of the SourceFabric Radio day long program. What is special […]
Don't Rage around Miss Cicely Alexander! This is a response to the Tate’s call for their 1840s GIF party — they have made images available from selected pieces of art from their 1840s room and inviting anyone to remix as a GIF. That is such a good idea I made it into a ds106 assignment. […]
