"Someday I will write a memoir"I was trying to understand why, from day 1 until now Dave Winer has been ever present in my stuffed (and frequently cut back on) aggregator. Cos of stuff like this, that’s why… it’s such a human experience… forget the memoir Dave, go for the soapie ;)

It’s a fully online conference and the deadline for presentations is Jan 31st so why don’t ya give it a crack. They don’t seem to mention anything about price just yet so I’m hoping it’s free… perhaps someone …
The Inevitable Personal Learning Environment Post
Seems like there’s a big wave ‘o people talking about PLEs in some pretty major terms. Stephen, for example, says this: It’s just you, your community, and the web, an environment where you are the centre and where your teachers – if there are any – are your peers. It is, I believe, the future …

Key Forums – Blogs Wikis & RSS Conference
One thing I’m pretty excited about doing in the next few months is presenting at and participating in a Key Forums Conference on blogs, wikis and RSS in Sydney in March.

So have been walking, eating good food, hanging out, kicking back and generally doing the holidays thing …
What a year!
Wow. Well there have been ups and downs this year but I’m too exhausted to go into them now… maybe that’s a January thing. However, yet again it’s been a delight to be part of this space… to talk / argue / meet / read and generally enjoy spending virtual (and real) time with all …
Small enough to wipe tha’ spam
I’m not sure why people bother really, I mean, you can go and set up a spam blog at edublogs.org but you’ll also have to supply a valid email address, go in, post to it and then get over the fact that when there’s only 20 or so being created every night I’ll just delete …
There’s a first time for everything…
OK, well, a second as I won a couple of books when I left my crappy school aged 18 ;) But more importantly, a decade or so later edublogs.org has won Most innovative edublogging project, service or programme at the edublog awards and even better that that, edublogs.org powered Joyce Valenza’s NeverEnding Search won Best …
Anti-Racism March in Melbourne – Friday 16th December
Well, according to the incredibly limited media coverage (more interested in the fear and loathing of what might happen) there were only 1500 people at the march yesterday. I beg to differ (the video clip below doesn’t seem to show up in Bloglines so you’ll have to visit this post to see it)… Was a …
