    Joseph Ugoretz wrote a new post, The Emerging Doitocracy, on the site Prestidigitation 3 months ago

    Thanks to Michael Smith for the great tip to listen to Adam Savage’s talk “Why We Make” at the 2012 San Francisco Maker Fair.

    There are many things to like about Gandalf, but one that especially appeals to me is that he isn’t a wizard just because he was stolen away and adopted by wizards when he was a baby, or because another wizard bit […]

    Thanks for that IT list, Bruce! It’s a valuable resource. Might be a good idea to link back and forth with the ongoing list here http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/wiki/index.php/Kitchen_Sink/Kitchen_Table_Utilities […]

    Thumbnail I had a great time at this year’s WordCamp NYC, hanging out with the other CUNY WordPress folks, and talking WordPress in education to a (larger than expected) and very interested crowd.  We tried to pitch for […]

    Where was the advertising? If GC math & comp sci students and faculty knew that Stallman was talking at CUNY, I’m guessing you would have had a full house.

    Joseph Ugoretz wrote a new post, Smarthistory and the Google Art Project, on the site Prestidigitation 1 year, 1 month ago

    Big news today in the world of art–and the world of teaching and learning with and about art–and the world of “jailbreaking” the museum (or access to all kinds of cultural knowledge).

    This is a fairly technical solution to a fairly limited use-challenge.  But it’s not a scenario that is completely unheard of.  It’s something that we’ve faced here on multiple occasions, so I decide to finally […]
