    • My Own Personal Theory for The Death of the Web citing Python, M (1975) You can’t click without hitting the proclamations of the web being dead/useless/broken/unusable. Why the web is bad? What happened to the web? And no shortage of Dead Internet Theories. Definitely the most palpable one to me is well enshrined as a word of the year, with Enshittification is so well explained by Cory Doctorow (I […]

    • The Joy of Web Improbability: The Buggles on/in front of #DS106 TV Keep the internet weird and un-expected, not managed by machine languages and corporatized algorithms, but by the small human acts of sharing. Ok? This has happened to me countless times yet never gets old. So via Mastodon, all the way from New Zealand, my colleague Stephen Harlow thinks to share this: Indeed, in a YouTube […]

    • #NetNarr Season 4: Net Mirror Post Script Oops. Speaking of slacking on the blogging, the last post here on this year’s Networked Narratives class was the first one about this year’s class. This fourth iteration of this change it up every year course co-taught with Mia Zamora at Kean University mixed things up from previous years. More on that soon. From the […]

    • Print Yer SPLOTpoints I admit I hardly think of printing web pages. But it’s easy to get limited by your own scope of stuff you do.. One of our most active and prolific Ontario Extend Participants, @NurseKillam aka Laura Killam, has been an eager SPLOT poster child, and her questions last year led me to add a number […]

    • The Digital Revolution Will Not Be Powerpointed (nor MOOCed) I’m not a MOOC completer. I am zero for life. My longest duration has been maybe 2 weeks, and more typically, much less. I am not denying that others get value of them and develop rich connective experiences. But I find the recipe structure and the activity behind a login as lifeless as the job […]

    • Immigration Deform TED Talk Probably the most well received talk at TED Tea Party City was Alien Woman, who shared her personal and moving story of thwarting the alien invasion. This Fantasy TED Talk assignment is brought to you by the ds10zone: Create a scene from a TED Talk being given by a fictional character. Obscure or well known, […]
    • Web Storytelling Wooster Style cc licensed ( BY SA ) flickr photo shared by cogdogblog I’ve lost track of the count, but for 3 or 4 years, Jon Breitenbucher has invited me to remotely present 50+ Web 2.0 Ways to Tell a Story for faculty participating at the College of Wooster’s annuam Faculty Fellowship institute. When he approached me […]

    • This Little Hobo cc licensed ( BY NC ) flickr photo shared by Duncan Brown (Cradlehall) It’s not quite the odyssey of last year but I am starting tomorrow on a string of summer travel- my gracious thanks to Jim Groom and the DTLT crew at UMW for their flexibility in letting me roam and work at the […]
    • 50 Ways to Wooster cc licensed ( BY NC ND ) flickr photo shared by bernat… Today was the third time I was invited to do a remote presentation of 50+ Web 2.0 Ways to Tell a Story for the Wooster College Faculty Fellows Program. Since Jon and Matt visited UMW a few weeks back, we had a good […]
    • Sometimes You Just Have to GIF Yourself Out of a Jam I’m thinking of Jerry’s note this morning (happy to see him signed up for Camp Magic Macguffin) “@lukew: “an artist understands that self-renewal is the only way to avoid burning out.””looking at #ds106 as a self-renewal project. — Jerry Slezak (@jslezak) May 22, 2012 With the startup of our online class, I worry about letting […]

    • Flickr Photo, A Log from Arizona, and a Pen Since I have asked others to share an Amazing Story of Openness, it is only fitting that I do one myself. This is a new one that happened this year: The story really played out on flickr, where I have crossed comments many times with Di (or "windsordi"), here she comments on my pile of […]
    • When WordPress Has Memory Woes cc licensed ( BY NC ND ) flickr photo shared by .m for matthijs I’m hoping to carve out some time soon to get back to the garage and return to tinkering with WordPress. To that end, I spent some time categorizing new and old posts, so I have a collection now of things blogged […]
    • May Story a Day #22: Grandest Blog It was a windy day at the Grand Canyon, but it’s clear the vistas and grandeur brought some clarity to Jim Groom’s perspectives on who has the greatest blog. Yeah, 4Life!

    • The Reward After a two hour into the wind and dodge the speedboats kayak excursion on Apache Lake… this is good. Damn good. The desert heat here is just starting to slowly simmer, just a tease of the oven baked temps you will see here in a few weeks. But it’s a somewhat cool breeze blowing at […]

    • WordPress Shazam! Your Category is Now a Page cc licensed flickr photo shared by ElDave The main navigation of most WordPress sites is driven by cycling through all of the content that are WordPress pages– which is nice, but sometimes you have content that you don;t want cluttering the navbar. Or maybe you want to insert something that is not a Page into […]
    • Connecting Calendars in the Cloud cc licensed flickr photo shared by ejhogbin Calendar data has always stumped me- on one hand it seems rather structured — something (data) happens on a date (data) maybe at a place (data) but it is something people much more savvy than I struggle with as it gets more complex… but I am not writing […]

    • Me TV Uh-oh, my 15 minutes of fame on TV is out and might be up. As previously noted, a few weeks back, I flew in and out of San Jose to be a panelist on the Ready2Net panel on “Web 2.0 Comes to Campus” (Drat you Bryan Alexander, likely too busy yourself, you should have been […]

    • Drupal-ing I am about shoulder deep in trying to learn Drupal as intended for a new platform to implement for the NMC web site– obviously since it can do so much, it lends itself for creating a multi-faceted site with customizable themes, separate domains for different projects, and all the 2.0-ish tools you’d hope are in […]
