flickr foto The New Phone Book is Here! The New Phone Book is Here!available on my flickr Taking a cue from the quote in Steve Martin’s The Jerk, “here” is actually our recycling container. Can you believe in this age of dwindling natural resources and internet based information, that we get dumped on our door […]
Strap your self in for another wild old crazy link tour, real audio echoes from the web past, and an anomaly of a free web storytelling tool that not only is around after a start 8 years ago, but quite useful. This web rabbit hole goes deep, deep, deep, including some browser source inspection of […]
Consider this post smack dab in the center of the author extolling themselves… hmmm, that might be nearly all of them, eh? But it’s my blog and it means all my own rules, and I found it nifty through a flickr forum that a photo I shared ended up in a video celebrating their 18th […]
If anything teaches you about being able to do repairs, it’s going for long distance bicycle rides or using one for commuting. You end up refining a set of small but flexible tools that you can carry, and sometime, far from anything, you find yourself improvising. Or there was a time I was camping alone […]
Last week this time I was just sliding off of adrenaline mountain after my Open Education Global colleagues and I ended the week long OEGlobal 2021 Conference. I’ve railed long and repeatedly here about the conference format, but then again when it’s your own affair, it’s different. And I like almost all others I hear […]
When you decide to share your images for reuse, you try to release the association with how they might be associated (hence the oddness over my catfished photos). My recent foray onto trying algorithms (is it AI or not?) for finding where my open-licensed flickr photos are reused are not nearly as interesting as the […]
Yes, as my friend Barbara Ganley teased me last week, today i did a fancy pants ****x (TEDx) talk here in San Juan, Puerto Rico. This was made possible by the incredibly generous/gracious Antonio Vantaggiato who invite me to speak at TEDx USagrado Corazón. The theme was “Think + Act”. More may be written about […]
Alas, my pile of things to blog about the UdG Agora project is more like the pile of stones than the finished end piece. Here I will describe what went into the main project web site http://udg.theagoraonline.net/ — and as all my web sites go, they are never quite done; some organization needs to happen. […]
I see writing here as a way of working out ideas, not issuing profound certainties. Beyond my assured hatcheting of grammar and spelling (hi Sandy), I learn as I share, where I am often (a) wrong, (b) blind or (c) wrong. Upon an insightful comment from Maha Bali I am rethinking the assertion on Over […]
On Tuesday, everything was lined up smooth for my invited talk at Skidmore College, Making/Telling Stories That Matter (ironically I submitted that as a title before I knew that the Skidmore motto was “CTM” aka Creative Thought Matters) (honestly). Except that when the a/v crew went to turn on the livestream broadcast, they found it […]
