- Keying In on Three Numbers I have an obsession with a 3 digital number. Of course it’s 106 for the greatest ed-tech thing that’s ever happened. But I’m just talking here about the 3 digit number. Since January 2011, I have collected 367 photos of finding 106’s in the world. Milepost markers. Scale measurements. Fuel prices (Canadian liters). Addresses. Time. […]

- Hotel LinkedIn: You Can Delete Your Account But You Can Never Leave Sometime after I ejected myself from Facebook I also deleted my LinkedIn account. I checked in to Hotel LinkedIn when they first started, and as it grew, it consumed services like Slideshare. I have heard of people making important connections via the service, so I do not discount its value for some, to me, I […]

- How Refreshing: Spaceflight, Optimism, Inspiration from Commander Hadfield As elementary school student in the early 1970s, our schedules at Bedford Elementary (like schools everywhere likely) were periodically interrupted for full school assemblies. We’d line up our chairs in the gymnasium trying to see the activity on what then were giant TVs mounted on carts. We did this for all of the Apollo mission […]

- Suns Are The Real Deal Something unusual happened in the NBA this year. The game actually got exciting. There is action, points are being scored. I went to a Phoenix Suns game about 3 years ago (someone felt bad because they forgot to show up for a meeting and offered to share me his ticket, I encouraged him to miss […]
- Holy Flickr! (Again) Holy _____. Flickr has done it again, rolling some cool interface features. First of all, great news for folks like Stephen, flickr photos are no longer rendered in Flash, but in DHTML; see From Flash to DHTML (on some pages!).

So with much better things to with my time, I whipped up this ad for a book not yet in stores: If […]

- openMLX: Thumbs Up From Legal Our legal department was supportive, even enthusiastic, about our plans to provide an openMLX, the propose open source version of the Maricopa Learning eXchange. They were not overly familiar with the details of open source licenses (they first proposed drafting up a new license), but seemed to understand our rationale for going GPL. Anyhow our […]
- Prototype for New RSS to JavaScript Code I ought to be something else, but have been bothered by two items regarding our often used RSS2JS (allows humans to use RSS by cut and past JavaScript, processed by a PHP middle ware script). It hinged upon the defunct, gone, and un-documented OnyxRSS Parser. It could not handle Atom feeds, and since Blogger is […]
