I’ve been happily tinkering with the beta version of WordPress 3, down in the bowels of the code, mixing unmarked vials of PHP over open flames, etc for a brand new NMC site. The main thing I have been working on are exploiting the feature to create my own types of content with their own […]
What was I thinking? Back in January, when asked for a description for a keynote I am giving in a few weeks, I had this crystal clear idea of what I was going to do. The crystal has fuzzed. I need help. Well, I am stretching the truth. I have some focus, but want to […]
It feels like an old song to me (nothing wrong with classics), but open content or open education IMHO is not solely focused on the things- the courseware, the things shared – its more about the spirit of sharing openly, and how that multiplies, sometimes on its own accord. This is but a tiny example, […]
Hey Bud, you gotta see what’s on my Air Stash… just don’t let Mr Hand get the SSID… It’s hard not to reach for this metaphor with something called the “Air Stash“. My NMC colleague Keene Haywood told me about this a few weeks ago. It’s described as a “wireless flash drive” for your iPhone/iPad, […]
You gotta tweet what you ask for. I believe I am mixing my metaphors, or just babbling at the end of a full weekend, in denial of the looming Monday ahead. That’s what makes it nice to have something novel to play with. cc licensed flickr photo shared by cogdogblog I’ve known Jared Bendis since […]
After a two hour into the wind and dodge the speedboats kayak excursion on Apache Lake… this is good. Damn good. The desert heat here is just starting to slowly simmer, just a tease of the oven baked temps you will see here in a few weeks. But it’s a somewhat cool breeze blowing at […]
Jon Breitenbucher invited me back again to do a remote (via Skype) presentation on 50 Web 2.0 Ways to Tell a Story for the week-long Instructional Technology Faculty Fellows program he and his crew run at the College of Wooster (by the way, they are rocking with wordpress multiuser there). When I did this last […]
Some colleagues out there are group reading the hip all the cool kids hot edu WTF book, Anya Kamenetz’s DIY U Edupunks, Edupreneurs, and the Coming Transformation of Higher Education . I’m game since a bunch of my buddies have mentions in there. However, in my Amazon shopping, I am stumped about the pricing of […]
This is the newest Dominoe story created in a tool so new and exciting I don’t have a category. I heard of Zooburst first in March 2010 at the NMC Symposium on New Media & Learning when Craig Kapp did one of the most outstanding presentations I’d seen anywhere, a session on the Augmented Reality […]
WikiMedia Commons photo posted by Donald Swanson I caught the NPR story on the radio this morning that today was the 30th year since the major volcanic eruption at Mount St. Helens (what do you buy a volcano on its birthday, and technically, no not really its birthday). What was I doing May 18, 1980? […]
