I’ve already written this blog post! Shall I cite myself, ibid infinitum? But just to show as an example, in my previous post I was able to reference the 2018 Mural UDG Project I was part of. A few days ago that was not possible, and also on the digital chopping block was years of […]
There’s no magic beyond my fervent clutch to the discarded in lieu of social media the fully functional tools of RSS and News readers. But I will perk up at a geological metaphor in a blog post. Thus it was Irwin Devries’s dusting off of the publish button on his blog with a great new […]
The SPLOTting has not stopped here. I’m happy to have added a whole new avenue for support of services for SPLOTbox I previously thought impossible. You can see it (and try it) in action right now at http://splot.ca/box. As proof of concept, you can add simply via URL, video from Kaltura media servers from BCcampus, […]
Today marks a new phase in my work plate, as my part time contract work in community engagement last year with Open Education Global is now a full time gig. I’ve not had that since 2012. Since then, I have been fortunate to land a long series of paid consulting (that dirty word) work with […]
I’ve not have much time over last days weeks more to do much SPLOT tinkering (well there is one experimental feature in the works).

Has everyone had a sufficient amount of time over the last year gazing into the grids of Zoom et al live sessions? Can we do anything differently? I’ve been pushing this with an experiment in my community engagement work for Open Education Global, trying all my tricks and methods to get activity going in our […]
After many years of being a first grade teacher, my sister Judy has certainly earned the freedom of retirement days doing what she wants. She has been messaging this week as she is sorting through many boxes of family memories, sharing a gem every day. She sent this photo asking if I remembered it: But […]
Note: It’s rare around this blog that something lingers in draft as long as this post. There is a reason for everything, right? But this one needs to get squeezed out of the Easy Blog Oven for another one to follow. The very same desire I heard in my first week (1992) as an instructional […]
For everything wrong about the 2021 web, the candle in the small window is the unexpected click that results in an expression of Neo-like “Woah” – is that truly possible in a web browser? Once the bar was set kind of low to be amazed by the web, just a collection of not so stupid […]
