I’ve been looking for a way to have a online calendar that I can share with teachers to let them know where I am and some how be able to keep it in sync with my Palm Calendar and my T5. So I got thinking last night and thought Google calendars seems to be getting good reviews so I did […]
This report came out at about 13:00 local time here in Shanghai. Australia’s “Crocodile Hunter” Irwin dies By 14:30 it was the talk of the school. Sad to hear for most of our students grew up on the Crocodile Hunter.
OK, this could be dangerous! I went through and geo tagged some of my pictures of Shanghai on my flickr map. Way to much fun trying to find the buildings and such. This map is REALLY old. Not sure how old, but our apartment is a construction zone and it was built in 2001, so at least that old. My […]

ItÂ’s why I try not to use that word, and urge others […]
I went to leave a comment on Tim Lauer’s blog yesterday and found out that he has disabled commenting on his blog. I wonder if this is because of all the spam that’s been going around lately. Last weekend in a period of 5 hours I had over 200 spam comments. So I quickly searched for a WordPress plug in […]
Graham Wegner left a comment on a posting the other day, and like I try to do with everyone that leaves a comment I visited his blog to see what he’s talking about. After almost a year of being in the edublogosphere it still amazes me how few blogs I know about which is why I’m promoting the use of […]
