  • Love Gotham Reader for trying to bring RSVP to a mobile news reader, but it needs some work. #
  • Has anyone done any work wit http://t.co/DJ7ayU6I? #
  • @injenuity You mean like a community discussion forum? ;) #
  • WordPress friends: is there a hook to add content to existing admin pages (not just adding admin pages)? #
  • Started my first WP plugin (or, really, any real PHP project) in years. What do all these funny symbols mean? #
  • I suspect this is going to be big: RT @cogdog: CogDogBlogged: Exploring Lake Macguffin http://t.co/SoCOwGoH #ds106 #

  • Obviously, I agree: RT @dlnorman: @sleslie well, yeah, but step 1 isn't burning down everything. best to be subversive from within (etc)… #
  • @holden As much as I love ref'ing Nick Cave, this originates from The Bible (http://t.co/NPHEMG9z) #
  • @holden @cogdog The original hypertext research cited by Carr is (surprise!) less definitive. But I still like the book and found it fair. #
  • Thanks to all who joined my #blend12 session on how new, /usable/ tech (read: Canvas) enables expansive and progressive blends. #
  • Chalk up my lack of enthusiasm for tonight's performance of Mozart's Requiem on fatigue and lousy seats. #

  • @tonyhawk It worked. Send the guys at @twitter their own #THTH opportunity… #
  • After an hour of intensive phone conference with editor over 4 pages of content she says, "Now we get to the hard part." #
  • Check out InstructureCon 2012 http://t.co/qrMA2pzu via @eventbrite #
  • What up WordPress? Spoiled my latest blog posts. Wonder if the db has a problem, refusing to re-save… #

  • The age old question that haunts me whenever a favorite band makes a release: CD, then mp3? Or just mp3? #
  • @michaelcjohnson For a moment I thought your wrote "Temple Run Workouts" — now _that_ would be a money maker. #
  • @barrydahl Fantastic news — congratulations! D2L is lucky to gain your experience and ideas, Barry. #
  • A blog post, this week, asks "What will happen to the self-published when we all go paperless?" Huh? #
  • New albums by Tindersticks and Dirty Three both arrived today. So glad I chose CDs over MP3s–the cases and artwork are beautiful. #
  • Apparently I spent 3 hrs on this chapter, with almost nothing to show for it. #

  • In Ontario, California for the CISAO conference. Don't think I know anyone in Ontario, conference included! #
  • Just listened to @jimohagan's Razor's Ed on Stitcher for the first time. Very compelling edtech analysis. Oh, +1 great radio style. #
  • I think this is the first business trip to CA where I didn't bring my skateboard. My ankle will thank this brief spurt of willpower… #
  • @marksuman Don't tempt me to look… #
  • @marksuman Now _that_ would be a sign… #
  • @weddingpresent You mention that "Watusi" is on iTunes, but also, now, on Amazon: http://t.co/pSjYoCsn #
  • BE ON FIRE http://t.co/8YZspCfO #
  • @holden Thanks for that link; I'm referencing UbD in a piece of writing I'm working on, and that helps. #
  • @jstein Will gladly share with you for feedback when it's drafted. #
  • @holden @jmcclurken @adevenney @sgreenla Analytics that go beyond a single system is a critical challenge. LTI might help, but is it enough? #
  • @holden @gmcclurken @sgreenla Sorry, no. There's a learning analytics G Group that @gsiemens runs. See http://t.co/8wHbRmJC #

  • @craniac Looks fun; don't know if I can make it, though. #
  • @injenuity Did it bring my flannel shirt and fax machine? #
  • @devlindaley's post happens to be Reason #2 why I joined the Rebellion: RT @instructure: Canvas is a learning platform http://t.co/Uc2pi7Jr #
  • @jimgroom zing! #
  • Promo for @streetleague 2012 out: http://t.co/Hxm70mBi Gotta hand it to @robdyrdek; he's made skate comps feel absolutely thrilling. #
  • @michaelcjohnson Nicely done. #
  • 3 hours work = half a chapter. Could be worse, but fiction comes easier. #
  • There is only one regularly unreliable online store that I continue to shop at, but the risk is worth it for the quality of the product. #

  • @evinsmj I think that's what folks genuinely mean when they say "best"–best that _I_ know of. I don't presume they speak for the world #
  • Somehow I missed that @jimgroom's #opened11 pres managed to make it onto YouTube: http://t.co/MtI43tsz #
  • @esquetee I think Matt M from @instructure will be responding shortly, but you can dm me if you don't get a quick response. #
  • @weddingpresent But you're not playing in the area, right? Because I just cancelled a trip to there… #
  • @esquetee Matt's a pretty awesome guy. Glad he reached out to you. #
  • Brilliant idea from Campus Tech: write EULAs for online courses http://t.co/mS8alNXx Because everyone reads and agrees to those, right? #
  • @gordonpeterson Hey, hey! I left UVU last fall and work for Instructure now. What's new with you? Still designing for the web? #
  • @kenwoodward that's easy: Lawyers. #
  • @kenwoodward Dude. Tell RJ, and @kenwoodward, to interview HERE. #
  • @gordonpeterson check your dm #

  • @vinnymke Not for long, my puppy. #
  • @ajwms Yeah, hope it wasn't too round-about a path to actually showing Canvas. I indulged in some ed tech philosophizin' #itc12 #
  • If I'm man enough, it'll be San Pedro channel skatepark tomorrow a.m. http://t.co/ksS2QJZv #
  • @injenuity SCORM Cloud is pretty cool with it's LTI delivery support. #
  • @Donagee Yeah, it's hard to pack examples into a short slot and still give some background. Will refine it to have less tell, more show. #
  • @injenuity Ah, you're presuming I've actually _used_ this ;) No, I just looked at the LTI concept. Public url to "course"? #
  • @injenuity jared@instructure.com #
  • @courosa @injenuity Yep, Instructure Canvas is AGPL licensed: http://t.co/3ZlDpK9G #
  • back directly from you. #
  • Ah, good q. Let me ask if that affects us, or if our usage might not be somehow protected. #
  • Its June 14-15, I believe #
  • I'll be sharing teachers' examples of innovative designs for ed tech challenges using @instructure Canvas in Broadway IV, 4:45 PM #WSWRC12 #
  • @DrGarcia I did, but no video. It was brutal, but in a fun way. #
  • I haven't plugged enough presentations this week, so: I'll be talking learner-learner activities in Canvas, Fri 9am MST http://t.co/xxVIyspP #
  • @DrGarcia Exactly. #
  • @evinsmj @barrydahl I defend the phrase as elliptical. "Best practices" is more akin to "… so far" that to ". Ever." #
  • Flight leaves at 3pm so could meet around 12 or 1 #
  • Hahah, well, you pick a place. I'm good with whatever and don't really care if it's north or south. Good with either really. #
