Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
In my own interest of sanity and focus, I’m letting loose for now my recent rage spate on Catfishing and fake accounts in FaceFakebook. I hit a similar spike a few months ago with the Timothy Boostrom phase. It’s not a giving up or giving in, but more just putting it in pause until the […]
In my last six weeks of travel, and right now sitting in an airport terminal, I noticed how much I am surrounded by people hunched over their phones. In the airport. In restaurants. On the beach. On the beach. On the beach! I bet all those people hunched over their phones in public think, "I'm […]
It’s quite possible I finished four books this month; two may have been started in January, but four in a month is a recent record for me in finishing. Both of these books I bought as part of my interest in westerns and #western106. While both are in the range of western genres, they could […]
I’ve always heard that the Gila Monster, a Sonoran desert reptile (hey Canada, you have NO Sonoran desert) is notorious for a bite that is never released. I am going to be the same way with Facebook until they come out of their blue castle and explain they illogical, inconsistent, way they attend to reports […]
I’m included with five others on a session / workshop for the upcoming OLC Innovate Conference; we are talking about Virtually Connecting — Rebecca Hogue got us together, and I think she and a few others will be on site. Maha Bali will be virtually there as are others of us, including me. Not being […]
A few weeks ago I got an email from Justin Reich asking if I wanted to run a workshop on connected courses with him at DML 2016. Heck yeah! I’m a big follower of his work, and it was Justin who got me on board doing an aggregation hub a few years ago for the […]
That is true – a beautiful month in Puerto Rico; that was my February of 2016 thanks to an invitation from Antonio Vantaggiato to spend a month with him and staff/students in the STEMmED project at Universidad del Sagrado del Corazón in San Juan, Puerto Rico. And it’s not the first time Antonio has been […]
The subject line in today’s email held some promise: A friend reported a profile they think is pretending to be you I was a bit bust enjoying the beach and time with friends on my last night in Puerto Rico, so I left it for later. And thus, I got another Rejection Letter from Facebook. […]
My upcoming long term project is all about building a credential system. Most of the first reflexes on hearing is “Go Directly to Badges, Do Not Pass Go.” It’s two weeks before I start, but my brain is already in motion, so I am info grazing. Now I have been a little bit flip about […]
“Yeah, wasn’t he involved in educational technology? Blogged a lot?” My recent stream of facebook catfishing rants have had a huge negligible less than zero effect. I got like 10 share in facebooks and 3 retweets. No one apparently wants to comment on the big fbomb rant. Facebook has not even responded to my recent […]
