Attending the session Don’t call it a Blog, Call it an Educational Publishing Platform by D’Arcy Norman and Jim Groom. So much information here with such humor, all in the joy of open source education content and assistance to edubloggers. They had so many links they showed, I hope they publish them on the wiki. [...] Why Facebook 101? That is the question that Phillip Jeffrey started his session with. He said he spoke about Facebook last year at Moosecamp, though I somehow missed that. Interestingly, this is one of the first times I have heard people here at Northern Voice speak about Facebook. I just don’t seem to “get” [...] The Northern Voice wrap-up session is now occurring. Great that they are having this today, especially after some feedback (from me and perhaps others) that last year things just ended without any closure. Hurray, I won a bag for having come here from the furthest away – New York. Cool bag I won with the [...] My friend Arjun is speaking at Northern Voice right now. What a booming voice and feeling of authenticity within government. Arjun is on the City Council of Kamloops, and it is inspiring that he blogs publicly and uses it as a forum to communicate with his constituents. Somebody in the audience just mentioned that [...] Chris started by asking people what blogs are, and people yelled out definitions. The big question is not the definition, and there are lots of other examples for what they are. This session is supposed to be a panel discussion, and the panel was seated in the audience, and the discussion about what a blog [...] Nancy White is so engaging, even coming in late to her session. I was interested in attending her session, but thought it was a little intimidating as I sometimes feel a bit threatened making images and then letting other people see them. Interesting what holds us (or at least me) back. But, rather than stay [...] Marc Cantor is speaking at Northern Voice now about Bringing Social to Software. Kris Krug gave a nice introduction to Marc. He started by speaking about social features integrated into software. http://marc.blogs.it He spoke about giant databases and social networks, which allow people to have hundreds of friends. With those numbers, “friends” no [...] The opening speech at today’s Northern Voice session is Matt Mullenweg, the creator of WordPress. Matt discussed when he started blogging, before he created WordPress, Automattic, and Akismet. There were a number of blogging applications at the time, and he thought the platforms were already old. He started blogging, but was tired of the [...] Boris is doing the introduction for the session, and he announced that Northern Voice is now an official society in BC now. That received some nice applause. He recognized the sponsors of the session, and then gave useful information. The tags for the session is northernvoice and nv08. We figured that out from the [...] Gene Smith is speaking about tagging at the Internet Bootcamp today, and he just mentioned that he recently wrote a book on tagging, entitled Tagging. Tagging is a simple and quick way to add metadata to stuff you’re interested in, like photos, videos, blog posts and bookmarks I read Gene’s book and commented on [...] |
