- A Silly CC IP-SUM Generator There’s something I love about web generators. Not the ones that make power, but ones that power the creation of stuff. The stuff of the useless web. Everything from the tombstones to metal band names to church signs to luchador names. Maybe it’s because people make them for no other reason than because they can. […]
- The Next Time I Have a Flash of an Idea and Rush Out to Buy a Domain… In 2013 the idea that was a domain first was twigit.info (not worth clicking, I let it go). I scraped in the bowels of my hosting account and found the remains of the holding page: I found some notes in a Google Doc and am a little curious I had a sub title of “a […]

- Pushing at Dichotomies With a (Perhaps Questionable?) Twitter Performance Our reviews came in as “icky”. “Risky”. “Manipulative”. Hey, pleasing all the people all the time, not worth trying. Last Friday was my last act in Canada from a 4 month stint as an Open Learning Research Fellow at Thompson Rivers University. As a nice dessert to the experience, Brian Lamb and I were invited […]
- Time Traveling to 1996 for the TCC Conference Time travel is rather exciting, but it does where you out. Or maybe that was staying up until 3:30 am getting ready for a talk? I shall garner negative sympathy for doing a keynote in Hawaii, but when the invitation comes… take it. I’m totally honored to be in the poster with other luminaries for […]

- Recasting Movies as Premakes Along the lines of the ds106 Return to the Silent Era Assignment, this set of “Premakes” by YouTube user whoiseyevan offer a fascinating approach to recasting well known videos into mashups of movies that came before them. HInt for my students- this would make a great idea for a final project. The concept is called […]

- Scary Stories from Strawberry #3 cc licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog I grabbed the mic for 15 minutes tonight to read a few more tales from The Thing at the Foot of the Bed. It occurred to me that this book was a bit like going back to the elementary school you attended and noting how […]

- What The World Needs Now… is another learning resource repository For some reason I’ve been having Cracker’s Teen Angst song in heavy iPod rotation; the lyrics are just ra ra (or is it la la la la). A new version might be: Cause, what the web needs now Is a new kind of resource collection. Cause people just cant do search location. Cause, what the […]
- Tag Juggling modified from cc licensed flickr image by espresso marco with tag cloud image from mediwiki I believe in tags. I love tags. After looking past at an excessive number of hash tags on twitter (and excessive ones in my flickr stream… and in my delicious account), I did start to wonder about the human capacity […]

- Register Soon to Mash It Up With NMC photo credit: ekai Don’t miss out on the 2008 NMC Symposium on Mashups – early registration ends this Sunday. Stop reading (or at least skim), and register now. This is another one of the NMC’s online conferences, and to fit with the theme, we are even mashing up our venues between the 3D world of […]

Registration is still open and it gives you at least 60 days post conference access to all materials and archived Elluminate sessions. Yes, […]
- Tweet? The Twitter update WP plugin has not worked for months so was pleased to see that Alex King, veteran pluing author, has released Twitter Tools, that updates Twiiter when you post a new entry, but can also pull in your tweets to a Wp blog as a sidebar, and optionally publish a pile of your […]

- Podcast Mania… And What is Missing It is no secret for us in instructional technology that podcasting is becoming the raging meme of excitement, a good thing. Maybe it is because of media attention, or just the whole iPod thing is just too cool. I’ve heard it uttered much more recently in emails and conversation with faculty in our system, and […]
