I’m very very happy that I’m able to spring Tama’s new blog (at edublogs.org: “I’ve been trying out tama.wordpress.com… I felt that edublogs was probably a better home for an eLearning blog anyway”) Not only because it’s great to be able to help out some familiar, um, faces… but also because of stuff like this …

ODLAA 2005 Conference
Well, that was one heck of a conference, rarely if ever have I encountered such a high ratio of PPEE (Professors Per Everyone Else) and there was conversation to match too!

Intellectual overload… ODLAA 2005 So far
Gordon Bennett! Quite a morning, down here in Adelaide, just a *little* bit of stimulation! First up Denise Bradley is exactly the kind of VC that I want, then Terry Anderson… well, he’s Terry Anderson, what more can I say (and he’s using Elgg… talk about a positive convergence of minds!!!) Follow that with Paul …

WPMU Friendly WordPress themes
Ahhhh… a relaxing weekend spent copying & pasting :) Net result is a big ‘ol .zip file of 60 odd WPMU themes which all have screenshots and have been edited so that they are WPMU ‘compliant’ (i.e. they don’t contain links in the template that you have to edit manually). So role over you your …
