    • Feedback, Please? Maybe the guitar (aka blog post) was not close enough to an amplifier (it fell with a silent thud). I broke some new ground in web making (for me) using a REST API to make a lightweight, customizable HTML site “navigator” for a full WordPress site. Despite a maybe not so clever visual metaphor, perhaps […]

    • Opening Up Attribution with Mediachain Attribution is a FBW (Frequently Blogged Word) around here. I’ve had some back if the brain pondering about how to extend my Flickr CC Attribution Helper to work with images from other CC licensed image collections that have a JavaScript API available (I am thinking of Pixabay, DeviantArt, and MediaWiki Commons as a start). I […]

    • The New Kings (& Queens, Princesses, Dolls) of #ds106radio Our Four teams of #headless #ds106 participants have really earned their crowns, as we saw heard Tuesday night when we premiered live on ds106 radio the productions of The Merry Hacksters, The 3Ts, the JunioRS, and the Dusky Path of a Dream Team. You can catch another premiere, the UK version hosted by John Johnston […]

    • When Six Degrees Are Not Enough cc licensed ( BY NC SD ) flickr photo shared by cjdaniel_ Sure, the grand we are connected world is fine for connecting actors but for my experiment to get a camera that was found on a train in Toronto back to its owners (a family in Germany)? Fail. I have since archived and removed […]

    • The Web is Almost Big Enough to Find the Snark I Would Create My daily routine is regularly interrupted by half baked ideas for sarcasm I think might be funny, knowing full well the standard deviation for who else might think it is funny is about 0.5 people. Oh well. I had a moment today where I might have ended up creating the laugh roaring graphics from scratch, […]

    • Something Smells Like Dirty Old Socks… Oh, It is Plaxo’s Comment Strategy! I keep active accounts at various sites that pull in my online activity, e.g. Plaxo, LinkedIn, Facebook, but don’t spend a lot of time in there. But Plaxo is now under my fur and a good scratch is not getting rid of this blogging itch. Plaxo let me add appropriate links for it to syndicate […]
    • iRecord iPhone iHappy More iPhone love. If you cannot stand it, go read a blog post about Android. I just gave Recorder for iPhone a quick test and it so rocks! For 99 cents, the price of a sappy Abba song in iTunes (or a Led Zeppelin anthem, just to be fair), I have an audio recorder on […]

    • A Book About Wikis Published As A Wiki It was pretty much another curious link click of serendipity last May that led me to Stewart Mader’s Wiki/Blog Using Wiki in Education. I gotta like a domain he chose that is “wiki” spelled backwards http://www.ikiw.org/. Today Stewart is unveiling his new book/web site project Using Wiki in Education, headlined there as “A Wiki-Based Book”. […]

Aimed to mobile users for quick results. Wow. Huh? Try http://rip-mix-learn.gada.be/ Or, http://rss.gada.be/ Hey, http://wilma.gada.be/ What? Is there a http://dead-cat.gada.be/? Mergermania! http://blackboard-webct.gada.be/ (Nahhhh, that one is empty. What a surprise!) But […]
    • Dog Tagged flickr foto impulsive optimistavailable on my flickr One of the images tagged in flickr as physicalmetadata. Wow, much better than cryptic “labels on soup cans”! With this metadata, we know this is a good dog, an optimist! I think (rather I Google) this is connected to the Flickr Peep Show exhibit. Wow, to be in […]

    • Pheed.com: RSS Phor Photos Here is an interesting use of RSS– Pheed.com or Syndicated Photography Feeds aims to promote the use of RSS to describe collections of photos. Pheed.com is a database of information about photographs available on the web. We present the work of photographers who have made information about their images available as an RSS feed. RSS […]
    • Legacy of Old Code: Software Old Enough to Get a Drivers License Following up on my nostalgia for ten years on the web, I also reflected on what was likely the first educational software I ever created, back in 1987. As a Geology grad student at Arizona State University with a few programming courses as an undergrad, I was handed the opportunity to run a computer lab […]
