Wow, I really hope PPTExchange is a parody, please say it is so… Are you the kind of person who writes their thoughts down in PowerPoint? Did you ever think that your presentations might be worth sharing -or even worth money? We’re exactly those people, and we thought: Wouldn’t it be nice to have a […]
“Who is taking a picture of me?” This during my last presentation at UNITEC. This 3+ year old photo was recently discovered by Karen (partially in the left side), and was taken in one of the workshops I did during a visit to New Zealand in November 2004. This workshop, or BlogShop, [link is dead, […]
Disclaimer: I work for NMC… We are running our Spring NMC Online Conference with a theme that originally floated through the 2007 Horizon Report, what at one time we were calling “The Small Video”. Just in the last few months, I’ve been tracking how much more prevalent the use of video has become as a […]
I found a new cartoon tag line for this blog, on the front page at Live in the Deliirious Cool (no idea what the site is)… I’ll let them bear the brunt of re-use of a published newspaper cartoon. There are two dogs talking, one says, “I had my own blog for a while, but […]
The plans are just in the draft stage, but I’ve gotten an awesome invitation from the Australian Flexible Learning Network to do a speaking tour of the Australia capitol capital cities in October 2007.

Between travel earlier this week for NMC meetings, time off between now and Monday, and squeezing in many late night hours banging our new drupal site (should be able to share it in a few weeks), I’m feeling way behind the blog train. Just sifting through my RSS feeds, I am compelled to send a […]
In between travel for meetings, trying to ramp up the new beta for an NMC site, and some time off this week, the blogging quotient here promises to be low and/or dull. Heck, I;ve not even taken a photo in like a week. And I’m not even getting to go to Northern Voice (sniff). I’m […]
Thanks to a tip from Tim Lauer, I am actually blogging this entry via IM from iChat using imified … slick!
Bryan Alexander writes of Web 2.0 network ecology stories and wonders about the phenomena of discovery, re-use of digital media.
