Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
How cool is this (and found via a tweet from Barbara Sawhill– twitterbution!)? Barbara Ganley splashes the New York Times on its story of Haste, Scorned: Blogging at a Snail’s Pace: When Barbara Ganley wants to collect her thoughts, she walks in the Vermont countryside, wanders home and blogs about it. In a recent post, […]
George Siemens is fine despite his sparsely titled circa telegraph text post Need help in which he asks some super broad (yes important) questions: I often hear educators talking about “education needs to change” (I do it too). This is the case for the K-12, higher education, and corporate training/education markets. As a small research […]
I can agree with all the positive acclaim for the archive of Life photographs Google is hosting. It is a vast archive of important historical moments. What is striking me odd that is not strictly mentioned on this site is any statement on usage of the images. I looked high and low, and I am […]
I have come across a new, and less desirable mode of blogging. Someone who just grabs something, tosses it on the glass, and leans their thumb on the green “copy” button of the Xerox machine (I thought of writing this as a “ditto” metaphor but would have lost most of my slim audience).

Even looking at much less considering following “gift_registry”, “Quicken Loans”, “Rentmyhouse4derby”, or “secretfatloss” on Twitter. Yeah, that’s my crowd. Yep. Logging into Facebook. Why? People who never […]
Last night for me here in Iceland I had an enjoyable time Skype videochatting with Chrissy’s class in Bangkok Thailand. I got to meet Chrissy in September at the Learning 2.008 conference in Shanghai; she is on her own adventure in moving this year to Thailand to teach at an international school. It was early […]

I’ve not written anything on a paper calendar or DayTimer for more than two years; my cal is on the clouds with Google Calendar– We have all of the NMC stuff using it on our enterprise set of GoogleApps, for individuals and several group/project ones, and I can access and schedule them with my typically […]
You’ve heard the declarations. Blogs are dead. 94% of them have not published in the last 120 days. I did not have time today to visit all 133 million blogs Technorati has been tracking since 2002. cc licensed flickr photo by john_curley But I have often marveled at the gems I find by random link […]
