How can you be #4life without over 600 blog posts about ds106?
Like a flying cannonball, like a balloon full of bricks, my goal to do a digital story a day for May has flopped mercifully: I’m not going to apologize, that is for weenies. It was a tough pace I was holding, but last week’s travel did me in… and frankly, well nobody cares if I […]
Vcasmo is one of the 50+ Web 2.0 Ways to Tell a Story– it offers a platform to synchronize powerpoint/presentations to video. A typical use is to have video of a speaker linked to their slides, and it works elegantly there. I decided to tale a video I shot of Bryan Alexander at his house […]
For another hurry up and post story, this is an example of the flickr group Tell a Story in Five Frames, where you have to submit to the group discussion a single post with a title and 5 photos that… tell a story. It is in the vein of my Five Card Flickr stories, but […]
I won’t apologize for being a day behind but I am so sorry I am a day behind. This is a tough pace, but certainly no race. Folks, if you think that ds106 is dangerous cc licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog Here is proof… So here, as a quicky, I used […]

A perfect example is the Six Word Story Group in flickr: […]
I tried as hard as I can to post this yesterday, but the apps and the nets failed. I was sitting there in Washington Square park, and awash in seeing all kinds of human stories play out. There were film students doing a project, tourists being taken in by the card tricksters, breakdancers doing movies, […]
I spent a few hours in the New York Public Library archives, down in the basement, combing through piles of uncatalogued photographs. In one dusty corner was a box marked “Unpublished Bay Watch Set Shots”. Leafing through photos from guest appearances, I was surprised to identify a shot of Bryan Alexander. On the back, notes […]
I’ve got a busy day here in the Largish Apple, but not too busy that I cannot do a short digital story while sipping coffee. Today, it is using my own Five Card Flickr Stories to weave one from random ds106 flickr photos. Make one yourself! Five Card Story: Webbed Up Past 11 a ds106 […]
