- Like a Bridgy Over Federated Waters Today I am wearing my Get Federated t-shirt as my attire as a guest on an Open Education Week panel on “Where are OER conversations happening anymore?” I sing of a Bridge over some kind of waters: Oh, social media gets brokenAnd followers just can’t be foundLike a bridgy over federated networksI will connect me […]

- Chasing The Magic Chef Cafe I can’t stop the curiosity impulse and sometimes feel obliged to chase down source-less photos. So it started with a Cory Doctorow tweet (just follow him, you will not be sorry) Why this image? It’s just road side Americana. Was it the tweet saying “circa 1970s” which was my childhood? That guess might be based […]

- The Daily Blank Theme can be… less than Daily Not everyone is up to running a daily _________ kind of site (like the original DS106 Daily Create). It’s a tough pace! So now you can make it Every Other Day or heck, even Weekly. This was out of my own need, there you go. I’m running two of these sites now, a Daily Digital […]

- cow + bird Twenty days ago I heard that the elegant story site cowbird was closing up the front door. So I vowed to add one a day until the very end. And I did twenty of them, right up until today (well one day missed because the site was “out of helium” for maybe 2 full days) […]
- Not Available in Stores (yet) Maybe when the internet Amazon Web Services comes back.
- [timebuddy] for WordPress Without digging too much into the reasons why (that’s code for “I don’t know why”) one headache with running WordPress Multisite is that even users who have administrative privileges on their own site, any embed code, javascript put into the editor is stripped on publishing. Only Site Network admins can insert JavaScript. Why? I said, […]

- Dear Facebook The subject line in today’s email held some promise: A friend reported a profile they think is pretending to be you I was a bit bust enjoying the beach and time with friends on my last night in Puerto Rico, so I left it for later. And thus, I got another Rejection Letter from Facebook. […]

- Charting Spring Via Flickr Flower Photos cc licensed ( BY SA ) flickr photo shared by Alan Levine This is unreal, February 27, and the flowers are out on my plum tree. I knew it was crazy early, but was curious about the dates I had posted first plum tree flowers in previous years. Well actually I tweeted something about this, […]

- Artsifiying YouTube Videos After coming across this brilliant redo of Star Wars in the Silent era form, I created the ds106 assignment “Return to the Silent Era” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eOjzLggAKis The dawn of cinema had no audio; silent movies created an atmosphere with music and the use of cue cards. Take a 3-5 minute trailer of a modern movie and […]
- Recasting ds106 Assignments When Dean Shareski asks a question, my ears perk up, cause the guy shares so much back (it is in his name after all), I have to oblige @cogdog Are there any assignments in #ds106 that would be ideal for Math or Science specifically? — Dean Shareski (@shareski) February 28, 2012 The thing is, there […]

- 50 Ways at UBC Today I spent at UBC, first an informal meeting with some course designers where Brian Lamb and I did some blog talk, and my bit from Northern Voice Not Cat Diaries / Lets Rip WordPress Apart to Make a Web Site, and an informal romp through Second Life. Then it was over to the Land […]
- Where in the World is Google Reader? Where in the World is Google Reader? by cogdogblog posted 28 Feb ’08, 9.24am MST PST on flickr Why has Google Reader been banished from my navigation? Its not even listed on the More Google Products – it seems to not exist. Though it is alive and well at www.google.com/reader Maybe it is a game.

- Temporal Virtual Worlds Although being rather involved in NMC’s Second Life and Virtual Worlds endeavors, I’ve yet to find or blog much on the experience there over the last 9 months or so. My SL namesake will turn 1 year old in a few months, though in many ways I feel still like a puppy (“In Second Life, […]

- 130 And Counting flickr foto DSC01365 It has been 130 days since it has rained in Phoenix. One Hundred And Thirty. That stretches back to mid-October that we experienced the odd phenomena of water falling from the sky. It has been four months of blue sky, sunshine, lies by weather forecasters, and a complete bust on the snow […]
- The RMA Dance Step A few months back I started having some problems with my SamrtDisk Firelite portable FireWire drive… I keep all of my working documents on here, a mirror of my web site, as I shuttle it between home and work computers. After two failures, where Disk Warrior managed to save the day, I ordered a new […]

- Drowning, Drowned, Drown I am drowning in things to do, things I would like to do, and things I have to do. My workload is more or less double what it was 6 months ago since losing the expertise of Colen, who worked 5 years for us doing part-time programming support and developing much of the MLX and […]
- Shelley Is On It: “Using RSS Feeds in English 102” MLX Package One of my colleagues has gotten bit severely by the weblog / RSS fever— this is a good thing. Shelley teaches English at Mesa Community College and is experimenting this semester with having her student review resources via Bloglines, and she is crafting an extra credit assignment for them to post entries in the Bloglines […]
- How Not To do e-Customer Service: “Call Us” Our local telephone service provide, Qwest, has these smarmy tv commercials with customers gushing how great the Qwest “Spirit of Service” is. I will not be starring in any of these soon. Regular CDB readers will know we periodically bark and growl about bad online customer service, so here is chapter 22 in the novel. […]
- Stark Raving MAD I owe my sarcastic streak to a boyhood influence of MAD magazine – the codebook to becoming a solid porcupine internet citizen. But Doug Gilford’s Mad Cover site is an over the top homage to friends of movie spoofs, Roger Kaputnik, Spy vs Spy, and the fold in covers. The site goes as far as […]
