The Memory Business

Ken Burns on his new WWII movie:

I’m in the memory business, and each time a person dies, it’s a whole library of memories that leave.

I hope we’re all just a little bit in the memory business.  This week’s U.S. News & World Report features a collection of WWII memories as well as some information on oral histories for folks interested in recording their own.

Internet Safety Summit

    I’m sitting in an Internet Safety Summit in Louisville, Colorado, sponsored by the Boulder Valley School District, the Department of Justice, and others.  I’ll probably be twittering the event today as long as my battery holds out.  Check out my Twitter for updates.  As an aside, just met a fellow edublogger, Matthew.  There’s a student group called the iCrew involved here (will look for a link) – I’m starting to be impressed.
