cc licensed ( BY NC SD ) flickr photo shared by sgrah I’ve had mixed success at keeping up with geotagging my trip photos, usually when chided by someone like @windsordi 😉 Frankly, the technology seems 90% there, but for me, has always required just that smidgen of extra effort that makes it a barrier […]
Like many I was in disbelief that we are in a Steve Job-less world. It’s deeply sad to lose anyone of such influence, of course, but I am not quite to the point of religious fervor elsewhere. And I was going to avoid trying to write anything, but… I got an email from someone really […]
cc licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog Ever since ds106 started, I’ve had this rabid obsession for photos with a 106 represented, starting December 18, 2010 (a month before the first open class launched), when I saw a pole along a canal in Mesa Arizona.

Based in the recommendation of David Kernohan I bought a copy and devoured “Things the Grandchildren Should Know”, the life obstacle overcoming journey of Mark Oliver Everett, the man behind The Eels. Before David played a long set of Eels, my limited by very satisfying exposure was the haunting Novocaine for the Soul, a frequent […]
In checking out some of the student visual design work for ds106 (which the CUNY students are really going far and powerful with), I could not resist one more Macguffin. A better real estate decision could have avoided dealing with that whole building full of freaks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ogfqfnt2Aaw Thinking again on the idea of a regular […]
cc licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog That photo was from my 2007 trip around Australia; I always thought that pattern in the desert looked like the shape of a dog. LUcky for me I made the effort a few days ago yo visit Sheryl Nusbaum-Beach, as this was a first time […]
