Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
From Tokyo we are seeing a nice ds106 activity surge in the Haiku It Up writing assignment created by Shinichiro- what is most lovely is how the author has elaborated on the meaning and structure of haiku beyond just the syllable forumala we learn in grade school here in the US. Haiku, known as the […]

This is a follow up on Gardner Campbell’s message last night when we did a ds106 radio show, echoed today by Jim Groom at his evangelistic Open Ed keynote. Gardner said something about “We dont need Open Education Resources, what we need are Open Education Experiences!” My thought now, given Jim’s passion (and all of […]
Flags make for great animated GIFs- I spotted this set of flags in Cookesville Tennessee, a US flag at half mast and a MIA flag. The first one is only 2 frames, the second 4. I was not even planning to GIF these, but the camera was in the mode of rapid fire shooting. And […]

I’ve lost any sense of what the search for the Center of the Internet means, but now, with the assistance of Obi Don Potter, I was able to get the message on the device left for me in Philadelphia. It appears I am needed to give a Storybox demo at Brock University, and I have […]
I’ve heard requests from people using pechaflickr (http://pechaflickr.cogdogblog.com/) to be able to select a different interval between slides than the pecha kucha 20 seconds. You’ve been heard, I tinkered with the code last night and have revised the site- The front screen offers the basic 20×20- type a flickr tag, and it will spawn a […]
While in Nashville, I noticed these interesting series of reflections from the Cumberland River in an office building, literally twinkling in the windows. I wondered if I could take a series of these to create an animated GIF. I used the camera in multiple shot mode, but still felt like the camera moved slightly (it […]
