- Ghosts [or Stories] in the [Internet] Machine When I was teaching DS106 there were not many rivals for teaching the craft of audio storytelling than to ask students to listen closely to the way what I consider the standard bearer of the form is- This American Life. I’ve gotten back to listening to more episodes lately, and they maintain that form. Episode […]

- Jack ‘n Bat: Some Western106 Shorts Ok, I am putting a ton of time into setting up stuff for Western 106, and it’s eating in my time to even do some stuff (what are those, excuses?). Part of Unit 1: Blog Riding Camp was written to have participants explore some short form stories, from either TV shows, short fiction, radio shows, […]

- Adjacent Extremes cc licensed (BY) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog Yesterday, within a few hours driving, I went from seeing the highest elevation in the lower 48 states, My Whitney (14,505 feet) to standing at the lowest surface elevation, Badwater Basin in Death Valley (-282 feet). These two points are about 100 miles distant on a map, […]

- Spontaneous Acts of Goodness Black Gold Direct From Brazil by cogdogblog posted 17 Jan ’09, 9.50am MST PST on flickr What a gracious thing Carla did after leaving a comment on my breakfast photo– she offered to send me some favorite dark coffees from Brazil, and here they are on my porch in Strawberry, Arizona (better daylight for a […]

- One Thing Out of 43 One of the social software sites I wish I had more time to delve into is 43Things. It is insanely social (in a good way), with all the pieces running. You have a personalized space, tags, rss, post to blogs, subscribing to flickr feeds, some sort of social FOAFing. If you have not been there […]
- Zeldman Snorts Ajax and Hits Web 3.0 Leave it to Zeldman to cut Web 2.0 hype to the bone. I relish the bite and fury of the words (plus the beautiful, elegant, Web Standard layout of A List Apart): To you who are toiling over an AJAX- and Ruby-powered social software product, good luck, God bless, and have fun. Remember that 20 […]
- Totally Underwhelmed: Flickr Backuppr Flickr Backuppr Originally uploaded by cogdogblog. I received my flickr DVD backup created by emblaze and while I like having this backup of the pictures, I think about the best part is the priting of the label. Some things I find underwhelming are: The format of the disk is a few folders for my image […]

PODZINGER looks inside podcasts, not just the metadata, letting you search […]

- RSS of Newest Stuff: Syndicating With Blinders Robin Good’s recent “Why RSS Search Feeds Based On Web Searches Are Important” was an interesting read for what it says about syndicating the results of web searches, but I had thought it would go down a different track. The quote that leaped out the page, from Steven M. Cohen was: The point of RSS […]

- Dog/Blog House Updates Part Q… 4 Not that anyone but me cares, but number 4 (my French numbering skills went out the ouvre) in my recent spate of blog tinkering notes (1, 2, 3) was a recasting of the date-based archives, the monthly archives MovableType builds for you. With the out of the box templates, MT simply takes every blog entry […]
