Just to prove to Andy Rush that you can publish from storify to your own blog and have all the content there. This was done with the One-click publishing at storify that I connected to my blog. This is how a business can make a customer feel valued- tweeting back in a way that you […]
Do you remember the Negropontism of bits vs atoms (from Being Digital) The best way to appreciate the merits and consequences of being digital is to reflect on the difference between bits and atoms. While we are undoubtedly in an information age, most information is delivered to us in the form of atoms: newspapers, magazines, […]
In this case, Calvin is Google and I might be the target. Let’s say, if you own a Chevy or Ford truck (I am the latter), you may have your preference for Calvin Peeing Stickers. It long predates Mac vs PC, so don;t f**** with me by giving me Chevy when I seek Ford. Huh? […]

Thanks to Martha Burtis and Giulia Forsythe (I think […]
We carried the box out of the car and set it gently on those straps, suspended over the hole. I shall never ever forget that lonely creaky sounds those straps make when released, when Mom went into the ground. I spoke about how I was worried when I told mom in March that I had […]
It’s been a busy 2 weeks, and I completely lapsed on last week’s notes. I doubt anyone noticed. I managed to cross almost all the way the super landmass known as “Ontario”, and might have made the eastern border were it not for the sad call that cam with bad news about my Mom. cc […]
