photo credit: pcesarperez People are so hung up with being labeled n00bs- it’s time for the bulk of us in that category to let our n00bility to bask in the sunshine, not hide in a closet of shame. Here are some suggestions for pumping up your n00b factor: Keep those generic icons that come with every account, grey generic silhouettes are unique, almost no one uses that brown twitter icon. Send thousands of invitations via linkedin to people in your address book(s) and be sure to use the custom text, “I’d like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn.” Everyone will thik you sent them a personal email. Tag everything in delicious “cool”, but don’t waste time adding more descriptive tags because that just messes up the database. The perfect text to describe your WordPress blog is creating an About page that says “This is an example of a WordPress page, you could edit this to put information about yo...

Badge of Honor posted 17 May ‘07, 9.45pm MDT PST on flickr You have no idea how much honor there was in being a part of Faculty Academy Sitting in the Richmond airport, sipping the free wifi on my way home to Phoenix, I am still swimming in the euphoric high of having the honor to have been a part of the University of Mary Washington’s Faculty Academy - 2 days of tech-teach-learn-love fest. On the ride to the airport, I joked with Jim Groom that it was al... more

Us Americans Appreciate the Traffic Help by cogdogblog posted 18 Jul ‘08, 1.18am MDT PST on flickr Look Right! There is a car! Even after 2 weeks in Australia, I remain confused at traffic crossings- yesterday I cam oh so close to stepping in front of a fast moving bus. The horn blew and there was not even time for the life flash before my eyes (or there are not enough highlights to make a reel).

My friend/colleague Sean FitzGerald is picking out some routes, and we’ll make ... more

Woah! I found out today my old Shockwave projects can breathe again! I cut my multimedia teeth in the 1990s on Macromedia Director. I was happy in the early part of that decade pounding around HyperCard and then came along a project (something to do with Study Skills) that required a lot of animation and there was this software box on the shelf that sounded promising. I never produced or created as much in those Director days. It was the first time I fell into a full blown onlin... more
