- Going mobile phone shopping with Ms. the Teacher this morning. AT&T. We will look at the iPhone. What else should we consider? #
- Does anybody recommend a phone that, you know, does phone-y things like, er, making phone calls? #
- @MrChase Well, everyone's saying iPhone for Ms. The Teacher. I'm wondering about non-smart phones. in reply to MrChase #
- @MrChase Low. But would increase if she had a keyboard, which interests her. in reply to MrChase #
- @dlaufenberg She's unsure. in reply to dlaufenberg #
- @dlaufenberg She does. I'm not sure she's right. Exploring options. in reply to dlaufenberg #
- If you don't yet listen to _On the Media_, this would be a good week to start. Pieces on sexting and electronic privacy. #
- Oh. IPhone. #
- @milobo Oh. Dear. in reply to milobo #
- ISTE's looking for board members. Is that you? http://j.mp/8yz3ds #
- Yes, Virginia, you can overuse exclamation points. And every time you do, an elf is given an unfortunate task. So use them carefully. #
- @pjhiggins @karlfisch You're welcome. Happy to help. (And to have @karlfisch do all the work.) in reply to pjhiggins #
- Ice cream. #pregnancy #Butyouknewthat #
- @courosa We keep meat in our freezer. So I have to go out for the ice cream. in reply to courosa #
- And now the ice cream guys and I are on a first name basis. Which I like. #
- @msstewart You could format your hard drive. But I'm thinking that's a little too much. in reply to msstewart #
- Catching up on _Glee_. Huh. Yeah. Okay. #

- @kjarrett Thanks for the post, Kevin. I'll get a chance to respond later today I hope. in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett That said, why do you give a pass to Google on the artificial constraints that they themselves instituted? in reply to kjarrett #
- @mwacker @kjarrett No. Although that's troubling. Kevin outlines two constraints in his post. They don't have to be. in reply to mwacker #
- Taking the girls to a room full of inflatable jumpy thingies this morning. Should be fun. #
- This week's _Newsweek_. Alston makes a good point. Worth looking it up. http://twitpic.com/unp2x #
- I wonder if having you do the search made you more or less invested in reading the article, @karlfisch @msstewart #
- @milobo Ooh. in reply to milobo #
- Private party dashed our plans. But the play place at this restaurant is a close second. And there's chicken. #
- @dmagy Pretty much always. Thanks for the reminder. #alwaysgoodtobethoughtofbutdudethatishardonanelf in reply to dmagy #
- @karlfisch If you're going to do the ads, should we move you to your own space, not one hosted by Blogger and that serves as a school space? #
- @shareski Okay. I'm tempted. in reply to shareski #
- @miketsimpson Go. And don't lurk. Problem solved? in reply to miketsimpson #
- @karlfisch Wow. Neat program. in reply to karlfisch #
- @dmagy @johrt The year isn't over. Yet. in reply to dmagy #
- Watching Teagan bound around the bouncy place. Serious rapture. Fun to watch. #
- @miketsimpson Don't be. The principal was an English teacher. #
- @ewanmcintosh Share soon. Some of us are curious. in reply to ewanmcintosh #
- @kjarrett I'm around. Think I left the ball in your court. Why does there need to be a GTA? A special one for admins? If Google is . . . in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett . . . going to do professional development, couldn't they do better than a one shot drive by event? in reply to kjarrett #

- @lionsima This? http://www.splc.org/wordpress in reply to lionsima #
- @kjarrett Not trying to start a fight. Just asking a question that I've not yet seen a good answer to. I mean no disrespect. in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett Okay. Actually, I think they're doing something more along the lines of word-of-mouth marketing. in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett The requisite link. http://www.womma.org/wom101/ in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett Neat. And you needed Google to create that for you because . . . ? in reply to kjarrett #
- @imcguy Yep. Read it earlier. Useful. Thanks. in reply to imcguy #
- @kjarrett I was hoping you'd get back to that. Yeah. You made it a focus of your post. They created those constraints. They didn't have to. in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett None of it is "free." I'm grateful to use their stuff, but it's not free. in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett True.But they could.Thoughfully & usefully. If they were really interested in PD. But they're as or more interested in marketing. in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett Every tool I use is more clicks and data in the Google mill. Either eyeballs on ads or learning about behavior. I choose that. in reply to kjarrett #
- @kjarrett Dinner calls. My apologies. in reply to kjarrett #
- Today's biggest accomplishment? I peeled a Clementine and got the entire peel off in one piece. #isoneededavacation #
- Snow. #
- Driving in the snow. Mostly because I can. Beautiful. #

- @garystager Flipcharts are Promethean's presentation software. It's a scripting language and pretty powerful, but most folks don't use . . . in reply to garystager #
- @garystager . . . Like they could. And too often, folks confuse "flashy" with "interactive." in reply to garystager #
- @garystager Really awesome potential for elementary stations. in reply to garystager #

- Doing nothing much in particular. It's going very well. #
- @khokanson I was busy doing nothing. It's hard work and requires almost total concentration. Sorry. in reply to khokanson #
- @crafty184 The same. I think. in reply to crafty184 #

- Does anyone else marvel at our ability as a culture to agree to perpetuate certain untruths? #
- @ScottElias Try _Foucoult's Pendulum_ by Umberto Eco. That'll keep you busy for a while. in reply to ScottElias #
- @courosa @dkuropatwa The dude in the big red suit. Lots of money spent perpetuating that. I find it interesting. in reply to courosa #
- @injenuity Good point. Sort of. in reply to injenuity #
- @dkuropatwa @scottelias I think that's true of all Eco. Genius. But takes some getting used to. Seen his museum exhibit on lists? Brilliant. in reply to dkuropatwa #
- @courosa Saw some Valentine's stuff last week. That's not so much a lie as it is an entirely different problem. in reply to courosa #
- @dkuropatwa Sure. http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/0,1518,659577,00.html One of many. Really fascinating. in reply to dkuropatwa #
- @injenuity Yeah. But the manifestation of Santa – NORAD, Google, countless news stories and whatnot – I find interesting. in reply to injenuity #
