This seems by my time to working on projects using web annotating. As noted early, we are planning more extensive use of hypothes.is in netnarr but the really Big Show is taking off this week, the project with Gardner Campbell on Annotating Doug Engelbart’s Augmenting Human Intellect: A Conceptual Framework. Some of the background has […]
Yet again a random click leads down an internet rabbit tunnel. Or a dead end. I meant to do another blog post, and was rummaging through the public domain images the Library of Congress Free to Use Extension puts in my new Chrome tabs. The expression on her face, plus the title of Belle North, […]
This week of February was always handy for remembering to send cards or do phone calls to my parents. I knew the 5th and the 8th marked their anniversary and Mom’s birthday (often I’d get them switched but close enough is always good enough by parents like mine). Yes, the 5th came, and as my […]
This was way overdue for our millions of fans, but this podcast is finally available in the iTunes Podcast Store….
It can take a lot of [insane?] effort to publish something like the DS106 Daily Create every day, but there seems to be enough hands on the wheel to do it daily. I’m not sure where or who did the asking, but I recall being asked if the Daily Blank theme it uses could be […]

Do you remember the scene of Web Apocalypse Not Now where Lieutenant Colonel Bill Feedmore boasts, “I love the smell of an RSS feed in the morning!” I hope not. But tinkering with RSS never tires, the technology that is always declared dead, but just keeps working. A current project I am doing with Gardner […]
I present a wee test for you, kind, gentle savvy reader. Have a run through these 10 random images, and see if you can guess the topic of this post (no scrolling, eh?) How did you do? When I tested it out myself, I was not sure I could pass my own guess test. Yes, […]
We have some fun in Networked Narratives with coded messages using rot13. Just look at the Daily Digital Alchemy 243: It’s just a simple cipher that works by changing each letter in a word to the one that is 13 letters after (wrapping around after Z). It’s nifty, because being half of the number of […]
The first HTML5Up template I turned into a WordPress Theme was WP-Dimension. The great irony was that I made use of the original static HTML theme on my own domain at cog.dog, but never went back to chow my own theme food. The thing that happened I was looking for a kind of welcome mat […]
