Twitter posts for the week

  • @fncll Lenovo is infamous for that. But I love my Lenovos. in reply to fncll #
  • Grabbing music clips for pres segment interludes: Man? or Astroman, The Lillingtons, Groovie Ghoulies, etc. #
  • @mikhailg Yeah, it's a security "feature". You can get a number of different plug-ins to "fix" this. in reply to mikhailg #
  • Ugh! Couldn't get Audacity to find stereo mix in Ubuntu. Rebooted into Windows (sorry for the delay, @qadmon) #
  • Thanks again, @qadmon, for the interview. The last puzzle piece for my #ITC10 pres, and it fits perfectly! #
  • @mikhailg Love Memento as a selection in this genre. in reply to mikhailg #
  • Just creating mind-destroying audio file. NOT for your listening pleasure. #ITC10 #
  • Big Thanks to @dlwalker for Late Night Learning LIVE announcer voice work #ITC10 #
  • @barrydahl Hey, that happened to me today, too! in reply to barrydahl #
  • Oh Prezi you did NOT just undo all my work then crash. #
  • I guess 160 pathed images is just too much for Prezi. #
  • Funny, my phony keynote intro script actually sounds pretty good. #
  • @johnhiltoniii Hey, it's DOCTOR Hilton! in reply to johnhiltoniii #
  • Cutting a final 2 minutes of an interview. It's painful to leave out good stuff. #
  • @diamond_mind Did that last msg mean you are offering crack to your taskmaster? If so, that's sorta like a bribe… I prefer cash in reply to diamond_mind #
  • RT @courosa Regular DVD vs. pirated DVD http://i.imgur.com/GxzeV.jpg #
  • One last edit of interview with @jonmott for #ITC10 As they say, when you want something done right… #
  • FT instructional designer position now open in my unit at UVU: http://www.uvu.jobs/applicants/Central?quickFind=54932 #
  • Marc and I strolled through the Fort Worth Library tonight. That's like no library I've been to. #ITC10 #
  • Now someone slap me with a killer joke about opencourseware before I fall asleep! #
  • Good skating in Fort Worth. Breakfast at Corner Bakery chain. #ITC10 #
  • Irfan Mithani 4 President. #
  • @barrydahl @diamond_mind and I are going to print our note cards and grab some lunch. Ready to rehearse whenever room is open. #
  • Good times @ #ITC10; warm reception for Late Night Learning LIVE. Fab skating downtown, then hanging out with @jimgroom, @busynessgirl et al #
  • @NancyWhite I finally can take a breath and send out some #motleyread postcards. I have a dozen that need to be written and mailed. in reply to NancyWhite #
  • @fncll You're there in spirit, though we cut my Descartes bit that was inspired by your #TTIX talk. in reply to fncll #
  • Before I forget, a big Texas thanks to @jonmott, @jimgroom, @twoodwar, and @qadmon for really making the substance of our #ITC10 pres. #
  • At #ITC10 @jimgroom takes the stage. It's an early a.m. sermon; hope the congregation is alert. #
  • Listening in on their conversation explains why there's only one other person sitting at @diamond_mind and @johnkrutsch's table… #ITC10 #
  • "In the beginning… we had centralized IT….on the 4th day, the LMS" –@jimgroom #ITC10 #
  • Oh man, STEAMROLLED by an impromptu choir of @jimgroom fans! #ITC10 #
  • It's true: academia is pretty arrogant if we think students come to us for their identity. #
  • "We don't need an institution; we just need a website" (@jimgroom re. http://www.khanacademy.org/) #ITC10 #
  • We need more great Wikipedia class projects, more people modeling what's possible. #ITC10 #
  • Glad @jimgroom's explaining the feed syndication/aggregation method–lots of people still don't fully understand the power of FEED #ITC10 #
  • "When you do things on the open web, a certain number of things happen that you can't predict." @jimgroom #ITC10 #
  • "Open by default…really makes a big difference in how faculty understand their work" @jimgroom #
  • Funny: @jimgroom talking about dept's running a blog–at #UVU IT was pretty scared of WPMU for this reason, replacing campus CMS. #ITC10 #
  • Yeah, @jimgroom and I both wonder why it seems to be that students (w/out blogs) choose the institutional blog over options on the open web. #
  • @twoodwar You /were/ here! Everyone loved your part! But yeah, looking forward to meeting in person some time. in reply to twoodwar #
  • You know it's a good keynote when you're inspired to escape the session–just to start working on the stuff @jimgroom's talking about #ITC10 #
  • "That we have a direct impact on our community … is a key part of being an institution" @jimgroom #ITC10 #
  • "A domain of one's own" re. personal web sites to revitalize, /reclaim/ one's own liberty. Go, @jimgroom, go! #
  • Right! One of the best things about a system like UMW Blogs it showcases and it /features/ teacher, student work. #ITC10 #
  • Part of what makes @jimgroom an engaging presenter is he doesn't rely on notes (like I do)–it just flows out like body heat! #
  • "Twitter is great for visualizing the network." @jimgroom #ITC10 #
  • @busynessgirl Yes. But hopefully it's a transmittable disease. in reply to busynessgirl #
  • The UMW Literary Jounals course is fascinating–one of the few instances of an English dept. linking academics to outworld work. #ITC10 #
  • @mikhailg How could @jimgroom be on stage AND be overseeing his vast empire of the Internet at the same time? in reply to mikhailg #
  • @jimgroom Great job at #ITC10–fascinating content, enlightening insights, engaging presence. #
