cogdog on People still read blogs. Well, maybe a few of them. I was happy to see others get intrigued and interested in my sharing of the ways Descript had really revolutionized my way of creating podcast audio. More than likes and reposts there’s not much more positive effect when you can capture Jon Udell’s interest as […]
cogdog on While there is plenty of academics undergarment wadding over AI generative text (and please stop referring to it all as ChatGPT), I was first interested and still in the generation of images (a year ago Craiyon was the leading edge, now it looks like a sad nub of burnt sienna). Get ready for everything to […]
cogdog on You know you’ve been around this game a grey haired time if you remember that podcasting had something to do with this thing called RSS. I found shreds of workshops I did back at Maricopa in 2006 “Podcasting, Schmodcasting…. What’s All the Hype?” and smiled I was using this web audio tool called Odeo who’s […]
cogdog on Current hyped mythology includes the idea that from the outside of one of the MagicalAI machines you can somehow conjure up what produced it. Or can you loop back? Promises, promises. But the ride might be interesting. As he does frequently, my friend and colleague Grant Potter slides me so many interesting sites and tools, […]
cogdog on Given there is always a kerfuffle of understanding the use of various Creative Common licenses, I am dubious about efforts to even add more to the pile (I have a sarcastic sweet spot for WTPL). But I am trying to at least be aware of stuff like TakeNode). I came across this via some stuff […]
cogdog on This is like one of those things where by the time you find a solution to a problem it has already fixed itself (see also, rebooting). And it hardly merits a blog post, but heck, I can write about what I want to write about. If you’ve been around the blog a while, you might […]
cogdog on All the places are full of doom, gloom, apocalypse about the state of the bird site or the impending end of _____ at the hands of AI or just the regular invoking of internet as burning dumpsters. I do not deny that these foul things are happening nor is this head in the sand. It’s […]
cogdog on I actually am not ready to blab about the Twitterpocalypse- instead I am experimenting with a “toot” from Brian Bennett, who I have been path crossing (pre-Twitter)? via ds106. I remembered there was once a JavaScript bookmarklet for quick posting built into WordPress… it’s not in core anymore, but available as a WordPress Plugin Once […]
cogdog on I rather feel like headplanting in the sand until the din and blabber (not the fun kind) of endless takes and broad claims of Twitter demise, Fediversitopia subsides. Oh I have something maybe to say, but I’d rather build stuff and tinker that toss sermons. Out of curiosity and exploration and something of a refreshing […]
cogdog on The fun thing about Mastodonning is that it is all new again. I worry much about what I see as a lot of effort to just transport the Twitter mindset there. Think differently, build a new. As a small experiment, I am testing the WordPress Auto Post to Mastodon plugin to toot out new posts […]
