• Hmm. Dilemma. Thirty hours of video that I want to the world to see. YouTube or private district video library. Hmm. #
• @zefrank A video of you editing your video wouldn’t be as boring as you think it might be. That said, your other edits were great. in reply to zefrank #
• @kfasimpaur Yeah. I have a paid channel there, but am not sure that it’s the right place. Not sure why. in reply to kfasimpaur #
• @kfasimpaur Choice just made for me, though. The video’s too long for YouTube. Vimeo it is. in reply to kfasimpaur #
• Turns out that #summerreading is far too important to leave for summer alone. #

• @beverson And really thoughtful work. Thanks. in reply to beverson #
• Off to watch Teagan graduate from preschool. So there’s that. #

• Wearing little robes. http://t.co/xLuyZ3Ol #
• A moment of Quinn http://t.co/Dgb1LFZi #

• @dajbconf Oops. Sorry for getting ahead of the speaker. in reply to dajbconf #
• @tomfullerton @injenuity @shareski What ethics prevent sharing teacher research beyond the university? We build that sharing in when we can. in reply to tomfullerton #
• @dkuropatwa @injenuity “Take” is a tricky word. When you give something away, it can’t be “taken” from you. in reply to dkuropatwa #
• @injenuity @dkuropatwa Didn’t mean for that to sound “gotcha,” but I think that’s often missed. in reply to dkuropatwa #
• @dkuropatwa @injenuity Sharing/love/kindness isn’t necessarily reciprocal, and if it’s predicated on that, it’s not good. in reply to dkuropatwa #
• I find it interesting how many “switching curricula is expensive” posts I’m seeing this week. Well. Yeah. #
• @dkuropatwa @injenuity It IS disappointing. Or unfortunate. And yet. in reply to dkuropatwa #
• Long headphone cord. Swivel chair. Three computers. Clockwise rotations. Dangerous mix. #
• That my cursor is perpetually the Spinning Beach Ball of Death is a bad thing, right? #
• @writerswriting I’ve also heard it called the Beach Ball of Infinite Sadness. in reply to writerswriting #
• Ani’s summer break begins tomorrow afternoon. What will she do? “I don’t know,” she says.Delightful. #
• Man. “Does technology improve education?” is such a poor question. #
• “. . . Because it is always in need of renewal.” – John Wilson in today’a _WSJ_. Talking religion but maybe schooling. http://t.co/B64pzeCs #
• Last day of 1st grade for Ani. She’s already requested that I call her a 2nd grader. I told her I would once school was out for the day. #
• @mburtis Does “long time listener, first time caller” make me a ds106 newbie or old hat? in reply to mburtis #
• @willrich45 Oh. She already approaches many family conversations as the resident teenager. I am so in trouble. in reply to willrich45 #
• @mburtis Ah. Suppose I can’t remember if I have an account. How might I determine? in reply to mburtis #
• @mburtis Seems that the alphabetical listing times out on page 2. in reply to mburtis #
• @mburtis However, I just found my account. So I’ll fiddle – thanks! in reply to mburtis #
• @karlfisch But if you try, sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need. in reply to karlfisch #
• Cool. P2PU School of Ed over at the Connected Educators site. http://t.co/nUHRFyqR #
• @willrich45 Quite right. in reply to willrich45 #
• Man. I wish I were going to be at this event. Perhaps you’ll be – and you’ll share your notes? http://t.co/LPA0Q2RX #
• Now, this is a series of badges I can get behind – Stripes from the Tame Tiger Tourganization. http://t.co/9KUk1pvA #
• @bgblogging Thanks. Been lurking there long enough. in reply to bgblogging #
• @cogdog Hope it’s okay to be late. Our bus went off the road a piece back. I had to hitch the rest of the way in. in reply to cogdog #
• Ms. the Teacher and the kids are all on summer break now. Celebratory fresh guacamole and Fudgecicles.Living the dream. # #
• @billselak No. They’re separate. in reply to billselak #
• Oops. Fudgecicles abandoned for ice cream instead. Still. Pretty great evening. #
• I’ve never conducted a yard sale. Until tomorrow. Wish me luck. #
• The least likely item to sell at #yardsale2012 First to go. After some hefty barter. Sweet. #
• Worst part of #yardsale2012 is the sneering from folks who don’t want my junk either. Technically, that means we share the same tastes. #
• @tomfullerton @rozgoldsmith @neilstephenson @thecleversheep Yep. I’m starting my 12th attempt at figuring out how to do this year right. in reply to tomfullerton #
• Another #yardsale2012 update: Many people want the stuff I no longer want. Which means I have room for new stuff. Which I do not want. #
• Abandoned #yardsale2012 to sit by a pool. Wonder if I’ll have any stuff left when I get back. #
• So. Frente!. I still kinda like them. #trueconfessions #
• And now to the G’s in my music digitization project. Peter Gabriel, anyone? #
• Not bad advice. http://t.co/7H63gYMR #Kindle #
• Speaks poorly of grading, perhaps. http://t.co/Gy9BXwnM #Kindle #
• @injenuity Every day here is filled with giggling girls. Enjoy. in reply to injenuity #
• What peer teaching can look like. http://t.co/AygF9nUQ #
• @pammoran Thanks, Pam. Appreciated. in reply to pammoran #
• @erinmagyar Congratulations, y’all. Hope all goes swimmingly. in reply to erinmagyar #
• @pammoran @paulawhite Would love to hear more. We’re building both a resource center and then hoping to build physical spaces, too. in reply to pammoran #
• @pammoran @paulawhite But thinking broadly about what gets made in them. in reply to pammoran #
• @pammoran Will do. Thanks. in reply to pammoran #
• @paulawhite @pammoran @vscheivert Awesome. Are you writing that anywhere? in reply to paulawhite #
• @courosa Not when you share the notebook the bookmarks are in. I find it handy that my notes and bookmarks run elbows. in reply to courosa #
• @courosa That said, I over clip and wish there were a live update when I grab a web page. in reply to courosa #
• @courosa Yeah. It’s not ideal for sharing. But works really well for me. I pretty much quit deliciousing when I went Evernote. in reply to courosa #
• Starting to get into a moving groove. So that’s a good thing. #
• This assignment is crying out for some Catan-ian intervention. http://t.co/8aHkQ7iI #
• Writing shamelessly self-promotional stuff. I hate texts like these. #
• @robwall Sure. A few find and replaces and we’re good to go, huh? in reply to robwall #
• @robwall Just saw what you’re working on. Naw. Yours is important. Mine’s ad copy. in reply to robwall #
• @bcrosby I dunno. Best of luck. in reply to bcrosby #
• @shareski – The Social plugin you asked a while back just had a major update – you might want to try it again. #
