- Footprints in the Web What kinds of web footprints are you leaving? Or does it matter since they just blow away? Where do you choose to do your walking? I am not talking about your data trails, am talking about the trails you make as a contribution for others. I know my answers, which are just mine, and are […]

- The SPLOT Image Truck is Here! Cue the music… the truck is rolling through your neighborhood, blaring the music, here to deliver random images to all the kids– and the truck is fueled by json. THE SPLOT TRUCK IS HERE! This could be a way for the TRU Collector SPLOT to provide random images that might one day, be an alternative […]

- On Syndicating Comments, Conversations Syndicating blog posts with Feed WordPress is a good tune, an old song here, from the heady days of early ds106 to my current class. But what about aggregating comments from multiple blogs? It’s come up often over the years, and recently in the Twitters by fellow RSS junkies It'd be interesting to look at […]

- A SPLOT is Born, Say hello to Splotpoint Twas fitting to return these past three days to Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops BC, invited by Brian Lamb to spend some quick time with people and place I was 5 months at in 2014-2015 as an Open Learning Fellow (or Fella). It’s a Brian story that the idea for SPLOTs (fill in your own […]

- How to be a Dickpreneur I opted to author this first in medium because that’s where people like “Richard” hang out. And yes “dick” is a bad word, but is also a nickname for “Richard” In which some annoyance over email spam likely descends into likely foul language ranting… and yes “dick” is a poor choice of language, but if […]

- You Can’t Keep this Dog Down! A new flickr cc Attribution Helper cc licensed ( BY-SA ) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog A few days ago I bemoaned, whinged, the changes at flickr that rendered my flickr cc attribution helper tool DOA. At the mercy of third party providers who take a great service and just yank it away (ahem Google– Reader; ahem Twitter– posterous; the list […]

- Five Place Map Poems As a variation on the Google Maps Story assignment for ds106, I was thinking of some other creations one could do via the maps. This was mulling through me head as I was driving this morning to Flagstaff via one of the prettiest highways, the Lake Mary Road north of Clints Well. So my game […]
- Jack Burns is the Last Cowboy Whew, I finished my ds106 Video Essay assignment on Lonely are the Brave, the 1962 not-western starring Kirk Douglas. The movie is based on Edward Abbey’s second published novel, The Brave Cowboy. According to the extras on the DVD, Douglas was very taken by the novel and personally was driven to see that it was […]

- Chaos / Order Chaos / Order by cogdogblog posted 30 Mar ’08, 11.54am MDT PST on flickr I finally got the pieces of my office desk up here, and with some cussing, drilling, glue managed to re-assemble it (a few of those cam/post things got mangled in my hast of packing up). So on the right side, meet […]

- Thou Has a Hard Drive (start with TV announcer voice): Previously… on Lost. Just kidding. Previously on this blog, I wrote of my dilemma at home of dealing with a giant unorganized stack of digital photos. In cleaning out my office at Maricopa, I had a similar problem, but here, at least, I had a spare 240 Gb LaCie FireWire […]
- When Silence Is Loud On The Net Like thousands, tens of thousands, maybe just short of McDonald’s order of magnitude (Billions and Billions) of other people, I am feeling the gaping information void of Stephen Downe’s hiatus. OLDaily been a mainstay of my ed tech input for so long I cannot remember, and it was Stephen’s work that opened my eyes to […]
- Eventicitis As I clean up my web site directory, 14 years of accumulated stuff, I start wondering just how many web sites I had set up for our offices’ various projects and events. Not to be horn blowing, but I am staggered to see that I found 260 different event web sites dating back mostly to […]
- Message From A Peanut Butter Chef Triggered by yesterday’s post on how one of our Spanish teachers started using PBWiki, I got a nice email from Ramit, one of the PBWiki co-founders, seeking ideas on how to “spread” the peanut butter / wiki concept to other teachers: I also noticed you’re involved in instructional technology, so I wanted to ask your […]
- Flickr Photos Requested Twice this week I’ve gotten requests to use some of my flickr photos (and ironically both photos were taken in San Diego, but on different trips) for use on other web sites. The first was asking to use my Gaslamp photos (1 and 2) for a San Diego tourist guide site (sorry, I lost track […]
- One More On Spam All this spam is bad for my cholesterol 😉 The prolific blog spammer “phuong” (at least 150 spam servings in the last month) is curious since he/she/it are not leaving any URLs in the spam insertion attempt, only a cryptic message like: Xin choa, Minh den tu HK, minh mong muon luoc lam quen vui […]

- Van Google I’ve always admired Google for taking the time to do important things like rotating their logos. I was a little curios when I reached for my favorite web tool today to find something and saw: And of course a quickie search revealed that today is Vincent Van Gogh’s birthday. Among other things you get by […]
