Jeffrey’s Twitter Updates for 2008-12-05

@Rondette Welcome to the world of Twitter! #
What a day full of busy meetings. Phew! #
I have to drive to JFK to pick up a colleague’s son. Will be strange to go to the airport and not look forward to a trip myself. #
@zerhynn I like your holiday avatar. #
@be_b Have you started to look around yet? #
@Kylab Just saw your Tweet. Not my son (per se); my older dog. Both of them are now cancer survivors. #
@Kylab Very tough with pets when they are the only “children,” as they can only look sad when in pain; they can’t say what hurts. #
@Kylab So sorry about your daughter. How is she doing? #
@Kylab Last night I went to the Holiday Tree Lighting Event at the American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge in NYC. Wonderful organization. #
Just read about OJ http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7767556.stm. The world may now be a slightly safer place. #
Poor (?) Boy George http://tinyurl.com/642bxx #
@arjunsingh Tell us why, Arjun; your url is to your Facebook page. #
At JFK Terminal 3. Feels like another world, or at least a different time and place. #

@kathyschrock I know what you mean . . . #
Wow, almost noon already! #
Going to the Holiday Tree Lighting Event at the American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge in NYC this evening. #

Taking a Project Management Managing Project Cooperation class all day today. #
We just took the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument. I did not find the experience valuable or the results useful. #
I think I am so qualitative I do not see how these sorts of generalizations can speak to individual experiences or situations. #
Does anybody know about training materials that link Project Management Institute #PMI guidelines with where they go in Microsoft Project? #

The Time Warner Center is nicely decorated for the holidays. #
Michael Storrings is signing A Very New York Christmas at Borders in Columbus Circle. #
@jfeo Not sure yet; the course will be online and I have not yet received the feedback regarding my syllabus proposal. Very condensed. #
Spencer had his stitches removed this morning and met the oncologist for the first time. Everything went well, and he is recovering nicely. #
@BlancheMaynard Still hope you are not reading this. #
@BlancheMaynard Why panicking? #
@kathyschrock If you were to speak, what would you say about it? #
@nealcross I suppose the marines are not interested in that part of the African coast?! #
@nelliemuller I think that title is right up there with “coach,” “advisor,” or “consultant.” #
@rdelorenzo I am catching up, too. Managing #Multimemberships is a challenge. I think I need to cut back on RSS feeds due to overload. #
Between meetings. #
Finally leaving the office. Tired. #

@BlancheMaynard Want to talk it out with us here in the Twitterverse? #
@betsyweber Deal. #
@chadarizona Thank you for the link. I am not familiar with #CSCW, the Computer Supported Cooperative Work conference. Did you present? #
@chadarizona I am looking to see what research, if any, has been done on or about Twitter. #
@BlancheMaynard Great. I hope you are not reading this now. #
Meeting a colleague for lunch; another instructional designer who works here I have never met. #
@BlancheMaynard hmmm, this is still suspect . . . #
Today is the final day for submissions to #QI2009 – The Fifth International Congress of Qualitative Inquiry (QI2009) http://www.icqi.org/ #
Anybody out there submit a proposal to attend #qi2009? #
Watching my students take their final exam for the Research Process and Methodology course. #
