Blogs are Back?! Folks are dusting off their dormant blogs! It’s a new thing! A Revival! Strap yourself in, my three readers, this post is going to be a douzy. Back to blogging, Huh? Who left? Not to brag, but why not, this blog has gone on steadily– HEY WAIT A MINUTE I GOT DATA […]
Edtech zombies may live out there somewhere, but are oft forgotten, maybe now arising out of some obscure LLM garbling, but heck, research papers can summon them too. Who better to shine a light in the creepy fields than Stephen Downes? His March 1o OLDaily post surfaced Open Education Is the New Punk: A Subversive […]
Managing Open Education Week, one of my major responsibilities at Open Education Global, is just well sort of over… well not really over as I have managed to munge it out in time beyond the March 2-6 dates. I’ve been recasting it for the last three years but yikes, have yet really to blog about […]
For the most recent DS106 Daily Create, a special one (well all 5167 of the other ones are still special) for International Women’s Day. tdc5168 #ds106 Acrostically Her, Poem for International Women’s Day #IWD2026 Today is the 115th International Women’s Day all day, worldwide.

A bit late for the monthly round of cleanups, but the mop is out. I have a few legacy domains running WordPress multisite that I am just going to bite my disgust of breaking links and let them go, after making sure they are full rounded up in the Internet Archive. I considered doing the […]
Easily voted Best Dog in The Universe, our dog Felix, now pushing 12 human years, gave us a wee scare recently. Breaking the patterns, he had not even come downstairs at dinner time. At bed time, he was laying on the floor, breathing abnormally deep, almost wheezing. He could not seem to lay his head […]
Another month notched in for not only batting 1.000 for daily photos in 2026 (after a perfect 2025) but not only that, actually getting it done and blogged on the 59th day of the year, aka February 28. More self high-fives! In the bank! There’s of course dogs, also foxes, flowers, skies, land, texture, a […]
I remain unable to do presentation slides from templates. When they nust happen, out comes the cloak of sarcasm. For her graduate seminar Cori had to lead a session on Poststructualism. As we talked, it just became ironic to think of doing a linear progress of Bullet Point Slides. We jumped to a club concept […]
I’m late to note that earlier this month, February 10 marked the 22nd year since flickr launched. You can ask your favorite chat thing “when was flickr launched” and the answer will spit out as February 10, 2004, but its just grabbing that from Wikipedia. Big trick. Doing some date calculation (sans AI), that means […]
I typo [often] therefore I am [human]1. I never learned good technique. Sorry Mavis, but back at Milford Mill High School in the late 1970s, I waved off the opportunity to take a typewriter class. I must have said something like, “in what alternative universe am I ever going to be spending time typing?” I […]
