Maybe more polished? With the help of Jon Fulton on camera and set up, Brian and Alan take the You Show to an auditorium (a long way from the first episode using the couch in Brian’s apartment). They have screen … Continued
The SPLOT Image Collector has found resonance as a useful tool to build shared image collections. I’ve modified the admin options so a site owner can decided which of the fields they want on the form (and even designate them […]
Since Coursera so kindly seems to share courses it thinks I might find useful, as a CogDogBlog Snarkity Service, I have sent them an email with a few course recommendations. They seem to know very little about other open courses, and what came before (and after) them. Also in flickr… This was constructed completely in […]
The flickr cc attribution helper is among my most proud creations; I can pretty much tell when I read other blogs who is using it. And it all started from the most important place, something to make my blogging practice easier. I’d written earlier about an unintended outcome of moving it from a browser extension […]
I’ve been thinking of starting a blog, but have hesitated because who really wants to read what goes on in my head and in my classroom? Or maybe not just schools, maybe its society. When teachers pop out of university system, sent on a mission to shape young minds, the factory products have been stamped […]
I’m reading a book right now. You know the interface design? A written work of ideas, printed to granular containers of text (called “pages”) with an intuitive navigation system. Yet I am thinking in the back of my mind the recent discussions a bunch of us are having about the History of Hypertext led by […]
“Hey, why should I be on the Internet?” “By the time I am in college, the internet will be our telephone..” “television…” “shopping centers…” “and workplace.” “And it’s already got more stuff on it than you can possible imagine.” Pretty obvious, right? You might be reading this on your phone at work. Gartner already charted […]
My idea for this remix is likely better than the execution. The FineBros has a brilliant series of Kids React videos where modern youth try to make sense of past culture, toys, and technology. They seem to average like 9 kazillion views per video; I’m lucky if I hit double digits. In some research for […]
Heading into a latter (not last, not ending, not over) phase of the You Show, in unit 5 we offer/ask participants to consider how they move a site that looks pretty bloggy into something that might be outwardly facing more […]
Let’s just do some arithmetic. Let’s say the average cost of attending a big conference is say, $1500 (~$400 airfare / travel related, ~$400 registration, ~ $400 hotel, ~$200 food, etc all subject to question where these came from). At a conference say the size of EDUCAUSE, where 7000 people attend, that is over $10 […]
