Part 1 of a presentation on blogging that I gave last week. It was a 3 hour workshop, so there’s no way I’m uploading the whole thing. If you listen carefully, you can hear my wife making a cameo. And a silly voice.

Home Again
I’m sitting on my couch and enjoying the marvelous encrypted wi-fi filling my apartment. I’ve yet to go through and spiffy up my previous posts, but I have some chores to do first and then I’ll get right to it. (And yes, this post counts as procrastination.) In my opinion I’d say that the Powering …
PUWT Session 5
I decided to peek in on Rachel Amstutz’s presentation on unitedstreaming and the DEN. There wasn’t too much new information for me, but it was still good to get a refresher course and show my support. Rachel’s done some good stuff for teachers throughout Maryland, DC, and even other countries, so it was nice o …
Session 4
I’m blogging from the conference, so forgive any format problems. (You may notice that I skipped sessions 2 and 3. That’s because I was a presenter for those.) Digital Camera Basics for the Innovator Educator Shiliey Upchurch I walked in a little late because I was answering questions at my own session on blogging and …
PUWT Keynote
Blogging from the conference right now. I’ll add the links later. Keynote Speaker: Susan Brooks-Young Web-Based Tools of the Trade: What Does Web 2.0 Offer Educators? All her notes are online!

Academic Aesthetic Netcast 115
This netcast is coming to you a day early. I usually record these things on Monday afternoons, but tomorrow afternoon I’ll be presenting a workshop on blogging so I don’t know if I’ll have both the time and the energy to record this then. I am hoping to get the audio from tomorrow’s workshop up …
Creative Commons Video
The good folk at Creative Commons have “revverized” their promotional videos. That means if you click on the ad that shows up at the end, you help them make some cash. Not bad, huh? [edit] The nifty flash player was too wide for the current formatting of my site, so I replaced it with a …
Academic Aesthetic Netcast 114
It’s convention time! Or at least it will be, soon. On the 13th of next week I’ll be giving an after school workshop on blogging. If you’re in the Maryland or DC area and want to attend, check out the details here. I’ll also be going to the Powering Up With Technology Conference on the …
Skypecasting
Thanks to a little help from Steve Dembo, I think I’ve figured out a sloppy way to record a Skype conversation using the free version of WireTap Pro. I’m sure there’s an easier way, but I’m done fooling with it for now. So the real question is: Who should I interview with my newfound recording …
