The end of an era – Goodbye Rheos
http://www.rheostatics.ca/#final About 2 weeks ago I was driving along with the radio tuned to CBC, listening to an awesome cover of Everybody Knows this is Nowhere. Now that tune has always been a favourite Canadian classic, and from the voice singing the harmonies, even before the announcer came back on, I knew right away it [...]
The Future of Learning Institutions in a Digital Age
http://www.futureofthebook.org/HASTAC/learningreport/i-overview/ Via a post by Michael Roy at the Wesleyan Academic Commons site comes mention of this interesting project that I thought for sure would get a reaction in the edublogging crowd, both for the topic and for its format.

GReader Help through Trailfire
http://www.flickr.com/photos/nessman/430434707/ So a little more on Trailfire – I mentioned in the first post that you can set it to see ‘marks’ on any page that others have added to their own trails.

30 Boxed – mashup multiple feeds onto a calendar
http://30boxes.com/boxed 30boxed is a handy little service – give it a feed (why, give it multiple feeds!), and it will place all the items on a calendar. Say, for instance, if you wanted a simple way to visually track all of your students’ blog postings against a single calendar… – SWL
Heave ho, scallywags, there's events listings o'er thar to liberate
(Avast, me hearties, this is the last of the pirate postings. Just be glad they weren’t podcasts So the other ‘mashups’ itch I’ve been wanting to scratch recently revolves around events listings, specifically a list of ed tech conferences that’s been around for a few years. Now before ye raise the topsails and give chase, [...]
Back on my feet and ready to sail the seas of trapped information, ya scurvy dogs!
Ahoy mateys, so that “moose fever” – turned into pneumonia for me! On top of which my entire family got sick too. But we’re finally over that now, so time to break the silence and set sail on the seas of end-user mashups. As much as I felt some small discouragement with the NV mashups [...]
