Education. Technology. Ideas. Travel.
This link is pretty cool. I remember seeing it a while back, but a friend on a mailing list reminded me about it and suggested it could have some interesting uses in the classroom, getting kids to think about storytelling.
Take a look at DFilm and see what you think. Love to hear your ideas…
I just wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a very happy, healthy and prosperous 2007.
I feel like 2006 has been an absolute rollercoaster of an adventure for me, and I’ve enjoyed all the challenges and opportunities it’s offered, and I’m very much looking forward to the new year.
Time magazine recently announced that the person of the year for 2006 is in fact… me! And you. And all those other bloggers, podcasters, and users of the ever expanding range of Web2.0 tools. Apparently, Time magazine thinks we are having such an impact on the world that we have been collectively recognised as “Person” of the Year. Thank you, thank you very much.
When Time produced this issue, they wanted to have a mirror on the cover to reflect back the image of the person holding it. To this end they had a supplier in Minnesota provide them with nearly 7,000,000 pieces of reflective Mylar to stick on the cover. That’s a lot of Mylar! (Ironically, the people about whom the article was written are probably more likely to read it online anyway.)
Of course, if you happen to own an iSight-enabled Mac, not only do you have obviously better taste than your Windows-toting brethren, but you can take advantage of a very neat little trick that only iSight enabled Macs can do. Head on over to Dan Woods’ blog and you can see the Time cover the way it really ought to have looked. With you on it!
Congratulations fellow bloggers!
