flickr foto Pick a Sideavailable on my flickr There is humor on the New Zealand tricks on the highway… often you see pithy sacrastic remarks like “Keep Smoking- That’s Why You Have Two Lungs”, or this example suggesting there are two sides to be passed upon… which one would Robert Frost take? Okay, this is […]
flickr foto Logging on to Bloggingavailable on my flickr The day of my blogging workshop at Manukau Institute of Technology in Auckland, there was put out in the hallway a marketing magazine that heralded blogging as a marketing tool. Playing all the stereotypes of a MALE blogger YELLING into a magaphone. Edgy stuff, eh? I […]
flickr foto What do YOU want?available on my flickr Are you talking to me? ARE you talking to ME? Are YOU talking to…. can you believe that CogDogBlog will feature a photo of a cat? What is going on here in New Zealand? It is almost heretical to feature a cat photo here in CogDogBlog! […]
I might have been a bit premature to share the wiki links for my New Zealand workshops. Apparently the server here got rather overwhelmed with traffic, because it was pretty much unusuable during my workshops down south at Manukau Institute of Technology.

I’ve yet to listen to it (maybe on […]
I’m about halfway through my three week visit to Auckland New Zealand for an ambitious series of workshops at several schools here, and am bouncing between my regular CogDogBlog and its flipped over variant here CogDog(kiwi)Blog as well as two (or more) flickr sites. I may be losing track of where I leave my dribbles […]

Pity the poor Teaching Wiki. Buried in s-p-a-m. Beyond the vast WIkiPedia with legions of rabid followers, most little wikis are doomed. Doomed. Doooooomed. Yours may be next.
Here I talked about loving flickr and a few hour later I cannot log in- all attempts are bounced back to the home, un-logged in screen. Flushed the cache, cookies, been tried another browser.
