- Some Cool Tech For #INF115 It took some alarm clock action, but was worth it to get up early for a Skype call with Antonio Vantaggiato and his INF115 students at Universidad del Sagrado Corazón. It seems like a while ago, but only a few weeks since I left Puerto Rico, having spent a month at the University and helping […]

- I Click, She Paints My sister Harriet is rather talented. Not only did she pick out the paint colors and materials for last year’s kitchen makeover , she’s good with the artistic kinds of painting too. Growing up, I remember her doing oil painting (one of her tall ships sits in my living room), but now retired in Florida, […]
- A Personal Toolkit for Information This concept could be big. Huge. Whilst looking for something else this morning, I opened a sealed box. Besides finding my Masters thesis and a box of old black and white print photos, I found this box of HyperCard diskettes, still sealed inside their protective plastic holder. The box is dated 1987, and the paper […]

- Maricopa OER Practitioners: Sian Proctor As part of my fellowship for the OER Research Hub at the Open University I am sharing these excerpts from conversations about OER use/creation recorded in April 2014 with faculty at the Maricopa Community Colleges. creative commons licensed ( BY-SA ) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog Sian Proctor teaches Geology at South Mountain Community College, […]

- Google Personality Disorder I might be the last one left still using Google Reader. Why not? Although banished from the menus, it will work through July, 2013. I’m in no hurry to join the Mad Rush To Find The Perfect Reader Replacement That Does Not Exist. But I was surprised when tonight reader announced that a newer version […]

- Story a Day May #9: Talking Terry The Bum Marlon Brando could have only achieved his heightened performance in On the Waterfront with the help of his film coaches, such as Talking Terry, shown in this historic footage. (this is the Talking Larry iPhone app, a fun little diversion of mimicry; and it can record performances as video, even upload to YouTube). If you […]
- Bryan Alexander’s Amazing Story of Openness In preparation for a presentation I will do June 2 for the ETUG meeting in Nelson BC, I have been collecting a new series of "Amazing Stories". On my recent trip to the east coast, I snagged a series of new ones from friends and colleagues I visited. And this will be a dress rehearsal […]

- User Generated Video Subititles… in Different Languages! Check out dotSUB “Any film in any language”. Now I am inferring the site from a short visit, and there is no “about” page; even the “help” page yields only: We’re Working on Help In the meantime, please send us an email at help@dostub.com. But hey, it’s all good, it’s all beta. What I could […]
- Follow the Bouncing Link Attribution It’s good to see a bit more of attribution by linking, or coined here as “Linktribution” in blog posts. Yet, I find it somewhat funny, and a bit disconcerting, that people are so rapid blogging that they are just attributing it back to some other blog post that is referring to another blog post … […]
- Cracked and Flimsy Slate I can count on one paw the number of articles I’ve read on Slate. I am definitely thinking this rag is worth it best virtual fish wrapping, and mostly is a waste of web code and server electricity. They are not alone, but lobbing the criticisms at Twitter like in What Are You Doing? The […]

- In Print/Web: “Internet Audio: Can You Hear/Talk to Me Now? Good.” Our Spring 2005 issue of the mcli Forum is printed on its way to all faculty and staff at Maricopa. We always put on the fast burn to create the web version in time to be announced before the paper hits the mailboxes. It’s a tedious formatting chore, but it is actually one of my […]
- Not Yet Riding the Tiger I am not one to stand in line or rush out to get the first version of a new operating system, so I am going to let the nice other eager souls take the first cuts on OS X 10.4 (Tiger). Over the years, I have found it more prudent to wait for the X.X.1 […]

- Spam Roach Spray I told you I was serious. Steps have been taken to turn the tide on comment spam roaches. The MT-Blacklist can only go so far (and activity logs show it does squeeze out the regular v*agra repeat crowd). Image courtesy of the Orphanage of Cast-Off Mascots . Next in the arsenal are steps 1 and […]
- Now The Dog is Getting Pissed at Spammers Grrrrrrr, you’d think perhaps on freakin’ mother’s day, the spam roaches might be doing something, but they obviously have no birth mothers, hatched in the sewers form when they came. 6 blog spams related to a topic I will not even defile this dog house with, all sent to a single post in span of […]
