Firefox 2.0 and must have blogger extensions
I’ve been playing with Firefox 2.0 today. What a great upgrade to an already great program. Of course what makes Firefox so great are the free extensions and how you can create the perfect browser to fit your needs. Here is a list of extensions I’ve added that I think are must haves for any blogger. Delicious Bookmarks: Love the […]
K12online Shanghai LAN party
I’ve been really busy lately, but having a night like we had last night makes it all worth it. Last night was our first of four Shanghai LAN parties around the K12online conference. We had some great food that my Ayi (Maid) made for us, drinks, and just plain fun! This podcast is our discussion about David Warlick’s keynote for […]
The Internet produced a radio star
I was sent this link from my friend Reece Lennon in Dubai. In the e-mail he simple writes: With all your talk of online communities and a flatting world, I figured you’d be interested in this. Very cool. I think the video’s description says it all: The World’s First Web Band have found each other on YouTube. They only know […]

I listened to episode 31 on the bus ride home yesterday and was fascinated that here sat some of the geekiest guys in the business and they […]

So here you go Mid August Mid September First of October End of October Can you believe it? In just over two months time it went […]
Looking for some Math help from the Edublogosphere
I’m looking for some help here. Our High School department has 20 laptops and they don’t know what they can do with them. I have ideas, but nothing concrete of how these laptops can “Affect student learning beyond word processing and Internet research.” We’re talking all levels of high school. From geometry to IB Calculus. I have a meeting with […]
Do the feed shuffle
Once in awhile mix up the order of your RSS feeds. What ever RSS reader you use, take some time to mix them up. I went to add a feed to my netvibes page today only to find out I already had the feed. It was way down at the bottom of my page where I hardly ever make it. […]
Answering the hard questions
I’ve been waiting for this comment and I want to thank Scott Meech who left this comment on my post about using the Google teachable momment. How do you use YouTube with so much inappropriate content on there? A great question and one that I’ve been waiting to answer. First, I need to point out that I am not in […]
