- Happily SPLOTic Metaphors Sadly Robotic I was in conversation this week with the folks concocting an AI flavored DS106 making use of the remarkable monster spawned of Michael Branson Smith of a generated Dr Oblivion All I can say is try it. But there was a round of group fatigue, ennui, fill in another synonym towards AI. We are not […]

- By the Time I Did a Clever Hack To Delete the Flickr Print Shop It was Deleted This is like one of those things where by the time you find a solution to a problem it has already fixed itself (see also, rebooting). And it hardly merits a blog post, but heck, I can write about what I want to write about. If you’ve been around the blog a while, you might […]

- I Never Was an “EdTech Guy” Recently Dean Shareski, long time internet colleague, friend, and since I moved to near Moose Jaw, neighbor, blogged that I Don’t Think I’m an EdTech Guy Anymore. Scanning the comments on his post or the long thread of replies to the tweet thereof, there’s a whole boat full of “Me toos.” Not me. And not […]

- A Bit of Rodeo Clowning on First High Noon Radio Show Today, at high noon my time, was the first High Noon Radio Show on DS106 radio.

- Self Introduction for ds106 Students Just so my students who start ds106 starting tomorrow know who they are dealing with! There is still time to drop, ha ha.
- Poop2013: Imagine How Many Pastures We Could Fertilize The yup you yup agreement embodied in GIF form here is from here forward to the end of time (or til I get bored) is the iocn to represent the silliest of MOOC ideas published. The odor… Among the buffet of dining varieties of educational web sites, edudemic reminds me most of something as tasty […]
- Building the ETMOOC Blog Hub (part 2) cc licensed ( BY NC SD ) flickr photo shared by epc In my last post, I quickly overviewed the wordpress customizations I did to set up the ETMOOC Blog Hub. Using the Feedwordpress plugin for a few feeds is easy to do, and it does a rather slick job of finding feeds from a […]
- Building the ETMOOC Blog Hub (part 1) cc licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by agiledogs I’m really getting the hang of setting up these FeedWordPress powered syndication sites- I wrote a few days ago about using this approach to create a twitter archive site for the ETMOOC site. At the same time, and more over the last few days, I […]

- No Linked Attribution: When the CC Item Vanishes? I always provide links back to the source as attribution for the flickr creative commons photos I use. Today I ran into the not so surprising case of wondering what to do, and what the ramifications for, if the original is no longer there? Here’s the case. A dark night in a web that knows […]

- Faux Ocotillo Resurrected Faux Ocotillo Resurrectedavailable on flickr When I left Maricopa last April, my colleague David Weaver gave me this plant as a stand in for an Ocotillo (a project I supported for like 10 years). I am not a good plant caretaker, and with a little bit of in-attention, this plant lost most its leaves a […]

- New Learning Technologies Buffet (Wiki Yum) Sometime before the end of December. my colleague Tom Foster at Chandler-Gilbert asked me to co-lead a workshop for Maricopa library staff. Tom has helped me a lot, so of course I said “yes”. Then last week, he reminded me we had a week to prepare for our session just completed. So what does one […]
- Do I Smell More AJAX in My Flickr Photos? One of the joys of flickr is discovering new features the web elves have slipped in in there. The one I discovered likely has been there a long time… but I just noticed then when you are viewing an image that is part of a set, say one of my flower shots of a tulip […]

- Build Your Own DeliciousFurlBagConnotea Marklet Maker I recently wrote of some JavaScript glue-ing I did to create a tool that allows my to take any web page in view, and submit it with one click to Furl, del.icio.us, Connotea, and our own Bag of URLs (see A Cup of Connotea: A New del.icio.us Flavor of Social Bookmarking (and now a 4 […]
- Hey, That’s Us! (But are we in FL?) The January 2005 issue of Campus Technology has a nice two spread on my employer, the Maricopa Community Colleges. In “Who We Are”, our IT Vice Chancellor outlines some of the big numbers about our big system (which is impressive), our recent successful .980 billion dollar bond election, and puts some prods into some areas […]
- Oh, those messy character encodings.. I recently wrote of some experiments to improved Feed2JS (see the updates fed to the site, bottom of the main page). Specifically, based on the request from a user in Germany, I attempted to change the output to encode content as UTF-8 using the new features on Magpie RSS 0.7. However, I have gotten an […]
