- Hey, Felix, it’s Gotchya Day Number 7 Thanks to Pat Lockley from who I learned the phrase Gotchya Day, this week I knew to mark April 6 as the day in 2016 that I adopted Felix from the Payson, Arizona Humane Society. I had the original photo taken for me by a staff member as I left the facility my “new” dog. […]

- Felix + 2 Friday marked the 2nd year since I adopted Felix, and since he turns four in May, that means now almost half of his life has been with me. On Monday I will take him for a hello visit to where I found him, the Humane Society of Central Arizona. And following the lead of Pat […]

- Man That Bava Dog Can Blog! Given a photo from @drgarcia of Jim Groom and his new sidekick, Daphne, I was struck by how similar their intent was on the computer screen. As a fitting parallel for one of my older efforts at the ds106 assignment, the parent child head swap, we have now a dog who, if she tries hard, […]
- And… Does Research Prove We Process Video Information 1.8M times Faster Than Text? If you buy lock, stock, and “no need for pesky things like actual data” fact that we process visual information 60,000 times faster than text, there is nothing to stop one from taking video at 30 frames a second as information we can process 1,800,000 times faster than text. The Huffington Post College edition comes […]

- Book Review: Teachers of Mad Dog Swamp I’ve been carting around this novel since randomly plucking it from the shelves last December, found at a used book shop in Hobart, Tasmania. The story by Khammaan Khonkhai is set in Thailand, and for me, the draw was its setting in a culture I knew little about. Piya, a newly trained teacher from the […]

- Amping Your Google Forms to be Tweetable cc licensed ( BY NC ND ) flickr photo shared by Ronan_C My list of words never used here include things like “monetize” or “viral” (oops I just used them). But in terms of trying to get a message out, I am keen to experiment with ways to make it go further. Yesterday, in one […]

- Stepping In My Own Poop Sometimes, or maybe frequently, a post here is done rather rashly, impulsively, and often stupidly wrong. I step in my own dog poop. There’s nice places on the net where nice people say only nice things. Not here. Hopefully reader glean my “style” as my way of trying to provoke discussion, controversy, and get a […]

- New Feed2JS Mirror and Some India Students Feed Aggregating More on the feed front. Sam at KinScape has offered and become the newest of the Feed2JS public mirror sites: http://www.kinscape.com/feed2js/ serving up feeds to JavaScript from a server in Michigan. Again, it was about a 30 minute install via ftp (mostly me finding my own typos and errors). We’re ready for more takers, let’s […]
- My Dentist Really Does NOT have RSS (but digital technology…) I whimsically, and falsely, wrote My Dentist Has an RSS Feed (there was a point, but that post has scrolled away…). However, he is rather wired for his work. Today, at his new office, they used a digital xray machine that takes the photos of your teeth, but they insert a mini sensor card in […]
