Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
It’s been a few weeks since the Blog Brothers were yakking but they did let participants (well anyone) know that their garage would be open for those angling to create a Connected Course. Open is as open does. Cars are pretty easy, right? Blogs and RSS are way more finicky pieces of engineering? Maybe, maybe […]
(Yes I know I mangled the French language in the title. That’s on purpose.) This is a scarf. Just an object. I’ve been wearing it daily for the last week since the weather here in Kamloops turned cold, the high daily temperatures are sometimes as high as freezing temperature. Not until this morning, looking at […]
It’s a reasonable but largely unanswerable question. For teachers pondering setting up a Connected Course following the WordPress / Feed WordPress method I’ve shared— will web hosting company Y be able to support a site with X blogs syndicating? @cogdog can a server for 12$ per year handle #ccourses data/traffic? http://t.co/lGs4P77NtP — Simon Ensor (@sensor63) […]
I can trace a path from what we are trying to generate via Connected Courses back to my work creating syndicated courses to ds106 to early work at UMW Blogs all the way back to one dedicated writing teacher at Middlebury College who devised what may have been the first syndicated course.

I’m feeling some restless urging for a new WordPress theming here. Checking my changelog it’s been almost five years since I changed things up (for which I received plenty of Jim […]

More metaphorical nonsensical questions? Or shall I for the first time toss at a TL;DR? No, this is not too long, […]

Many of my best friends are reclaimers. Boone is so hip he went to a dumb phone. Tim sez Ghost is better for blogging than wordpress *ASTERISK if you can get used to writing in Markdown. I mock not maybe a little– I respect these folks and their taking a stand. I’m trying to better […]
Of all the creative assignments from DS106 (of which there are more than 730, that is so un-massive) maybe my favorites are the re-edits of movie posters. If any institution ever wanted a class taught in remixing old movie posters… well contact me, ok? I can talk about the many layers of these creative tasks, […]
