Here I bark and growl about the web, edtech, photography, and other stuff that gets under my fur (more…).

Keep those e-cards and e-letters coming via my Bark to Me web contact form-- except requests to add links, insert ads, or write guest articles. I don't do that. Look around. If you bug for stuff listed here, and worse, repeatedly ask if I got your message you likely will get the treatment. Ignore this warning and you will incur a pile of dog poop left at your doorstep.

Blogging Quotables...

[Blogging] became such a process of discovery that I couldn’t wait to get to work in the morning: I wanted to know what I was going to say.
