I have a new podcast up over at Teachers 2.0. You might want to check it out if you’re a Teachers 2.0 follower OR happen to like things like Second Life or World of Warcraft. To be honest, I was inspired to record this (or at least the third part of the podcast) after finding …

I promised to have this uploaded before I crashed for the night – looks like I got to keep my promise. This is the audio from my presentation at this year’s MICCA conference. Forgive me if I keep things brief as I’m quite wiped by the experience of these past two days. A pdf version …

Last seesion of the day, and I’m in the one for cheapskates people who like free software. Not just free, but created by everyone for everyone. Yeah, saving money is a big plus, but in many cases open source software has better features and fewer bugs. Everybody wins … unless you sell software rather than …
My presentation went very well – perhaps too well, since I kept answering questions and helping people out until the session after mine was over – along with half of lunch. As I said before, that’s not exactly a complaint. I’m happy to help. I was a few minutes late coming to Will Richardson‘s last …
When I saw that FableVision was the keynote for today, I admit I was a little worried – but only as much as I’m always worried when I see a presentation by someone running a commercial business. I suppose the idea that a company involved in education is more interested in the business than the …
Forgive me if this reads like I’m just a bit distracted – I’m writing this during the awards presentations that are preceding today’s keynote. It’s hard for me to do 3 things at once sometimes. I didn’t blog from any sessions yesterday, as I spent the entire time showing people just how easy podcasting can …
Kathy Schrock is today’s keynote speaker. Naturally, her handout is all online. As such, I’m not going to blog too much about it – She does a much better job than I do. Multi User Virtual Environment – the great-great-grandchild of the old Multi User Dungeons (or MUDs) that I used to play in college. …
I’m sitting here at my Podcasting Booth, which is unfortunately right next to the conference bookstore. I say “unfortunately” because, as a bookworm, I’ve already found two that I will be buying as soon as they officially open. It’s like those books held a vaccum cleaner up to my wallet and sucked the money right …
This time around I might sound a little different – that’s because I’m using my Creative Zen again, rather than GarageBand. I figured since I would be demonstrating it tomorrow I should get back into he process of actually using it. The books I ramble on about in this episode are Kidcast: Podcasting in the …
As I write this, my wife and I are listening to one of the 80 unplayed podcasts on my computer, while even now iTunes is downloading more. This is after I’ve gone through and unsubscribed to many podcasts, some of which I miss already, complete with twinges of guilt. The “fat,” so to speak, has …
