Scrolling back the blog in time, inspired by John Johnston to see all posts posted on today’s date in previous years. This is achieved via the WP Posted Today plugin (that’s one I made!).

- Two Old Folks in the Park Waxing On About Bookmarklets This was how things worked on the connected internet before people’s attention span got distilled down to 280 characters, clicking like buttons or reacting with emojis. I shot out a post here about some play with rather old tech, browser bookmarklet tools, all to be craftier at Google Image searches. In hours, Tony Hirst blogged […]

- Glitch-a-SPLOT I cannot say I have the itch to glitch, but have always dug the kinds of things my colleague John Johnston does with adding glitch effects to digital stuff. But one link leads to another, and an idea sparks, and then next thing you have been dabbling a bit long, it’s been an unknown amount […]
- Big Fish / Small Search Pond Oh stats. I don’t typically look at the WordPress admin dashboard site stats, but it’s there. Sometimes a funny item pops out of the “top searches” display. What the heck was someone looking for when they put that into the google box? And how did they end up here? This I saw last night: I […]

- You Can’t Catch the Catfishers… But You Can Play Out the Line And Waste Their Time I’ve dialed back the level energy I spent in January and February writing about catfishing. It consumes me with negativeness, and frankly– nothing is really going to ever change at a systemic scale. Do you really think Facebook is unaware of this problem? Given the number of reports that happen, the presence of catfishing support […]

- All of Twitter to #DrBon A late congratulations to Bonnie Stewart for defending her dissertation on Friday. I am little peeved she scheduled it the morning I left for a 4 day backpack to the Grand Canyon, so I missed the live video stream and all of the twitter live action support. Through emails I did not see until today, […]

- Eleven in Blog Years creative commons licensed ( BY-NC-SA ) flickr photo shared by chrisinplymouth Yikes, I missed my own blog birthday yesterday. This pile of typos, rants, and code jabbering started on April 19, 2003 with I Blog, Therefor I Am. This first post, which also defines the source of the name of this space, was posted using […]
- Remembering Sherman Lake With what seems like 95% of the comments that squiggle through Akismet to the moderation queue still spammy, it seems almost like your first blog comment when a legitimate one comes through (as most online conversations slither down the vat of twitter/facebook/google+ spaces). I got that today when Mark left a note of an experience […]

- Happy Blog Day To Me… cc licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by Randy Pertiet I forgot my own birthday. No, not the human me, the blog me. Yesterday this pile of crud turned 10 years old. like Lorne Green would say in an Alpo commercial, “That’s 79 for you and me!”. The first blog post here was I […]

- Jason the Red Cross Guy cc licensed flickr photo shared by cogdogblog He was persistent and wore me down for a donation to Red Cross; my concession was asking for a photo, not quite the full Stranger Photo process, but in that direction. This was my lukewarm attempt at a ds106 Stranger Portrait. Jason cornered my over on Green Street, […]

- Lend a Hand to 50 Web 2.0 Ways to Tell a Story Help! Please. I am taking 50 Web 2.0 Ways to Tell a Story on a spurt of road shows over next 2 months- Barcuch College, Penn State University, Salem State College, and online version for Wooster College, and then a session at Ed-Media. Gulp, am I becoming one of those shlock presenters that milks a […]

- Google Reader Offline Bonus Bet yer Bloglines cannot do this! One of the features I treasured in my desktop RSS reader (back when I used NetNewsWire) was that it would periodically download the lastest feeds and store the content on my computer. This meant then if I was offline (e.g. on a plane), I could still browse and read […]

- Rockin’ in Second Life Today was the rockin’ launch of the NMC Campus opened virtually in Second Life. After much morning prep, we ran two different 2 hour sessions, at 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM PST. I am working on a new NMC site that should server as the primary news outlet (read as blog published, podcast enhanced, tagged, […]

- About ePortfolios.. More to come here in the nest few weeks as some new efforts get under way in the area of Electronic Portfiolios. For now, see the 100+ resources collected for our October 18, 2003 ePortfolio Dialogue Day
- Google of the Week Part of (maybe) a regular feature here is a preset “Google-link” that produces results relevant to CDB… Coming soon will be a simple guide site to doing this for yourself, but it is just about the easiest, simplest, and most effective way to share external information without researching yourself…
- MT Plugins MT Plugins is very useful collection of addition tools for Movable Type for those that are setting up an MT site, all free. I’ve added two so far and plan to go back for more…
