Who remembers the crazy of web badges in the mid 1990s… “Top 5%”! Back at Maricopa, I had slapped together my “stinking web badges” page (wow what old stuff). Got a new one today, but I am humbly flattered… This stinking web dog blog got listed as one of the top 100 educational educational blogs […]
Most bloggers want comments, eh? After jumping through account forms, questionably readable captchas, how much is one’s spirit to comment crushed when a site mis-labels it as spam, and eats the entire comment. I was unable to overcome these obstacles yesterday. This started when I read Graham Atwell’s post on Creativity costs money in Second […]
It was close to a year ago I moved this blog, it’s predecessor, and some of my old vintage 1990s home page from servers I maintained when I was at Maricopa. Before I left, the old “Jade” server was running, and I set up some htaccess redirects to send requests to their proper new places. […]
Firstly, I plead guilty. Last Tuesday and Wednesday as our NMC Online Conference n Impact of Digital Media, where we had great participation (200 registrations, highs of 112 in one live session), yet in some sampling there was hardly a ripple of coverage in the blogopshere, checking today at Technorati and Google blog search, mostly […]
In some sense to parody myself (why not be the first in line?), I am writing here about a “presentation” in its most convoluted, extruded definition I recently unleashed for the K12 Online Conference… this being a request a few months ago from Darren to do a segment on “Basic/Advanced Training”. I started out on […]
I guess I’ve had nothing to write. Actually, my attention has been corralled elsewhere, with multiple daily posts for the NMC Campus Observer with our 12 day Second Life Symposium on Impact of Digital Media. I’ve been recording all of our streamed live audio sessions, making sure chat transcripts get posted, taking tons on in […]
Hey, it is all about ME, right? So, if you thik this can measure the impact of your blog on the universe, give a spin of Bloginfluence, where you enter the URL of your blog (that was not 100% obvious on the form), and you need to dig out your Bloglines ID. Let the browser […]
Despite my best intentions, I am now in a state of blogging to about 4 or 5 sites, all my own doing. So why not do some internal promoting? On the personal side, is I Hate Running, a WordPress I put together last year when I completed my first ever half marathon. I ran a […]
Let’s say someone sends you some info related to a project, maybe some links, etc… is it bloggable? One could say, if it is on the web, discoverable, Gooogle-able, then it is open to be blogged about? I faced this recently with something I sent out that some info linked to a project site that […]
This has been quite a few days… I’ve been in Newark, NJ, for a meeting related to NMC’s project on MacArthur Foundation Series Digital Media (no link, a rather long, un-bloggable story there), but it has been a momentous gathering of top names in the many fields. There are 90 some expert authors and editors […]
