Nice guys by Sebastián-Dario posted 26 Oct ’08, 7.57pm MDT PST on flickr Cachorritos de Lila You can hardly glance at twitter or open your RSS feeds these days without reading about zombies. WTF? Lumbering flesheaters are somehow fashionable? Time magazine gushes about them. The New York Times loves ’em. Jane Austen now embraces them. […]
cc licensed flickr photo from irishdragongreen I’d heard from a colleague today that they got a Dear John email from Yahoo informing them that the online video editor app Jumpcut was going away, as confirmed by the “in the deadpool” story from TechCrunch. It’s little surprise, given the December 2008 move where Jumpcut removed the […]
Oh if you caught Beautiful Depravity back when they were starting out, you’d know what pure true Metal music is all about. Of course by the time Thou Art Metal came out in 2002, they had already lost a lead guitarist to a bizarre accident with a welding torch, and their original keyboard player found […]
Since it has been on going for almost as long as I have been in the ed tech field (going back to 1996), the annual Technology, Colleges and Community conference feels like a regular part of the changing seasons.

While shaking off the thick layers of coding dust in my Feed2JS efforts, I also took some time to update the code for my Five Card Flickr site- you can play with it now at http://web.nmc.org/5cardstory/. Again, this is a variant of Five Card Nancy, where you are challenged to assemble 5 photos randomly plucked […]

Woah, Neo, I am back home. Yesterday started on a sailboat at Sampson Cay in the Bahamas, and 19 hours later I was home where it was 30 degrees. Ahh, back in action, but now I will reminisce on the last 10 days What did I miss?
It is actually only eight days so far bit the bliss of this vacation in the Bahamas is ocean deep. I flew to Ft Lauderdale March 30, had my last sips of the tubes (for the first time since I can’t recall I’m travelling without a laptop, just the iPhone- how free it is to […]
Lola on the beach by ambertq posted 22 Oct ’08, 12.48pm MDT PST on flickr I have to leave town tonight. I have a red-eye to Newark and hopefully a connection and some information when I get to the next place. You see, my older sister and her husband have not been home since November. […]
