  • Oklahoma City area WordPress User Group Meeting

    Thanks to James Deaton, I learned we have an Oklahoma City-area WordPress user’s group which meets just down the road from our house at Oklahoma Christian University! The next scheduling meeting is for Monday, August 31, 2009, at 7 pm. I really need to learn how to manage my WordPress server logs and troubleshoot error…

  • So many CMS options: Why I mainly invest in WordPress and Google Sites

    I do not consider myself a web design guru, but I’ve created a fair number of websites in the past fifteen years or so and continue to dabble with website design. One of the biggest changes which has taken place in the past five years or so, from my vantage point, is the transition away…

  • What’s your media platform for knowledge sharing?

    I love this quotation from Seth Godin, which is included as slide #83 in Marta Kagan’s new SlideShare “What the F**K is Social Media: One Year Later.” The word blog is irrelevant. What’s important is that it is now common, and will soon be expected, that every intelligent person (and quite a few unintelligent ones)…

  • 6 WordPress blogs all updated to WP 2.8.2

    If you use a commercially hosted blogging platform like Blogger, EduBlogs, WordPress.com, Squarespace, or Typepad, count your blessings when it comes to upgrade headaches. I do enjoy using and love self-hosted WordPress blogs, but there is a periodic price to pay in time as well as hand-wringing which comes with self-hosting. Updating / upgrading WordPress…

  • Ready to mobile-blog our vacation

    Our family is off for a week’s vacation, and I’m leaving “Moving at the Speed of Creativity” in the able hands of some wonderful guest-bloggers. I’ve got Twitter Tools configured to auto-tweet their posts, so my friend feed won’t go entirely dark next week. I’ll be blogging over on our family learning blog intermittently next…

  • Blogging TCEA 2006: Create, Share & Access

    In the fall of 2005, I was surprised when leaders of the Texas Computer Education Association (TCEA) decided not to publish one of the articles I’d submitted for their quarterly magazine, The TechEdge. I’d faithfully contributed to and published in the TechEdge since 1996-97, and this was the first time I’d ever been told, “No.…

  • When we blog, we create the web

    Great quotation tonight from Canadian professor David Humphrey: …let it be said that if you don’t blog it, it’s not happening. For the web to know about your work, you have to tell it… the web isn’t something you use or something you read; it’s something you create. You become a part of it by…

  • Tammy Worcester Keynote at OKCPS TechDay09

    I’m live blogging Tammy Worcester‘s keynote at Oklahoma City Public School’s Tech Day today! The title of her keynote is, “Beyond Copy and Paste: Building Integrated Technology Projects.” We’re starting NOW! Beyond Copy and Paste: Building Integrated Technology Projects Since the text inside an embedded CoveritLive archive is not accessible from an iOS device or…

  • Tracking and translating blog conversations: Google Blog Search Mentions and Yahoo! Babel Fish

    This evening reading one of Chris Pirillo’s old posts, I noticed in his sidebar links for “My Profiles” he includes a link for “Blog Mentions” which includes code for a Google Blog Search for his site: http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch?hl=en&scoring=d&partner=wordpress&q=link:http://chris.pirillo.com/ I’m not lacking digital reading material these days, thanks in large part to the wonderful educational bloggers to…
