  • Recording skype video and audio calls

    I was glad to learn this evening that Call Recorder for Skype, a $15 program I’ve used for a year or so to record skype audio calls now has been updated to also record Skype video calls. Excellent! The program integrates right into Skype (for Macintosh) so you specify the settings you want like other…

  • Resources on copyright

    I received an email recently from Cheryl Lykowski, in which she asked for my views on copyright as they apply in educational contexts. I am not a lawyer so I always start conversations like these with a disclaimer: If you need legal advice, consult a lawyer. That being said, these are the resources and links…

  • Show notes from Mom

    I’ve added my most extensive list of show notes EVER for my last podcast interview with my mother, which focused on milblogging, cookery blogs, and the ways people remain lifetime learners and users of technology when they have motivating PURPOSES to use technology.

  • Sub-$100 digital audio recorders come to Wally world

    I was delighted to see the following three digital audio recorders available for purchase at a Missouri Wal-Mart somewhere between Oklahoma City and St Louis last night around 8 pm. (There are a lot of sub-$100 digital audio PLAYERS out there, but fewer that are RECORDERS supporting portable voice recording that is ideal for podcasting.)…
