Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
If you’ve clicked by my 50+ Web 2.0 Ways to Tell Story you will know I have told the same old dog story 50+ times, so it was a refreshing suprise when I got an email tonight from Claudia Ceraso describing a novel way she used Dominoe’s flickr set as a way to have her […]
It was one year ago today I did my first @dailyshoot assignment. I give my tip of the blog hat to D’Arcy Norman for turning me on to this. The theme one year ago was “water”, and was assignment #12 cc licensed flickr photo shared by cogdogblog From the start I enjoyed the play part […]
I cannot help it. I have tried (somewhat, well rather tepidly) to embrace the Facebook fervor (because <scarequote>Everyone is there</scarequote>).

And of course I do not need to apologize (especially as most likely no one will even notice). I’ve already got enough on the plate every […]

Let’s stop doing sort of sharing, like sort of pregnant. You do or you don’t. And save the trotted our excuses, “most people don’t know about creative commons”, “the default is turned […]
I so so much dig blog posts from Clay Burrell like his weaving a less than glowing Blackboard experience into a story The Tailor – A Parable. He pulls zero punches but also brings his point home in oblique creative ways. While I was pretty sure what a parable was, a check in was worth […]
