Just to prove I’m definitely not a journalist I also do interviews :) Here are a couple, one a few days old and one just today (and in Spanish… my mum would be proud!) Here’s the first one by David Tosh at Edufilter. And here’s the second at La Clase Abierta. Thanks for giving a …

Citizen journalism sucks
Alrighty then, here’s a big ‘un to mark the first week of the new blog :)

My new, new media, blog

Bloglines: The lover with a sting
Have discovered a little more about recent server issues… it seems that Bloglines, when allowed access to my server, is making ~230 parallel requests/second to it… which is naturally, along with all the other requests, killing everything. Problem is that a very significant percentage of people hosted on the server – edublogs.org users included – …
