Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
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, […]

Today was showtime for final project presentations by students at a course at the Hague University of Applied Sciences… the third year I have had the opportunity to be part of Project Community. […]
Right there is a test of new flavor of my flickr cc attribution helper where it generates copy/paste code to put the image in a wordpress post, but place the attribution text in a WordPress image caption structure. This is the default output using the regular version of the helper, but in making a new […]
Stuff goes wrong, what do you do? Wait for the gong or just keep the patter going? Last Thursday I was slated to do a half hour session for Thom Cochrane (Auckland University of Technology) who is leading a multi-institutional New Zealand project on mobile learning.
