I should not have to list out the things that can make one feel weary after a few (hours? minutes?) of opening an internet device. Is anyone else worn out? Thankfully, enough things happen, without seeing them coming, to- at least for now– counter the flood. And invariably for me, these are at the individual […]
This is the third of n in a series of posts covering the development of a web site project for JIBC. Previously I wrote about the metaphor of and prototyping of a map metaphor. Now it’s how it was not exactly realized in the WordPress site created. But let’s start with the end, meet CorrLeader, […]
Go ahead, be a copycat. Down at number 111 of the 2019 Top Tool for learning is a site I use often myself for finding images available for reuse, pixabay. The rank is anything I care about.

I saw Martin Weller’s tweet out for a randomizing text generator: He got lots of replies (which is what make twitter useful when often it can not be), though many were just offering tools, not necessarily web producing ones (cough Excel). Were I not busy with other tasks Sunday, I would have liked to not […]
As the second part of a series of posts about a leadership model web site created for project managed at JIBC, this one is about some of the early interface explorations I dabbled with.
