Things wordy, geeky, and webbyLinks: 2008-04-25
Friday, April 25th, 2008 at 7:37 AM |- Liz Strauss on creating a successful blog with community. Long transcript (we deafies thank you), but great conversation. You can download the PDF for reading a bit at a time.
- Fail frequently. Edison didn’t fail 1000 times, he found 1000 steps to creating the light bulb. Also, think about how you deal with mistakes.
- Making Headlines: This takes time, but it will pay off.
- Online Writing: How one teacher uses social media in teaching a writing class.
And for fun because you’re allowed
- Bored people find x-ray machine
- Toddler sings The Beatles’ “Hey, Jude” [Link: Buzz Bishop]
- Traveling to a subway city? Hop to HopStop to get all the bus and subway guides. Washington, DC’s metro system is amazing — complete with information visualization through its maps. New York City? It only confused me. I’m underground, how am I supposed to know which way is north?
Geeky couple’s rings [Link: Chris Kieff] looks almost obscene. Chris and I were joking in Twitter. He said, “… I think it would be a little awkard to have them plugged together… God what a geek I am to think that!”
I replied, “Yeah, just amazing hooking ‘em up and trying to walk together side-by-side… ohhh, carpal tunnel!”
