A Wandering Eyre

There are many ways that the mob can change their organizations and communities. I stopped at Sonic a couple of weeks ago and saw that my cherry limeade had an advertisement for a charity drive that Sonic is conducting this month called Limeades For Learning. For a third year, Sonic is helping teachers and schools [...]

My local NPR station recently started playing talk radio all day (hallelujah!) and I have been wallowing in all the wonderful shows I used to listen to regularly when I lived in Dallas. Last month, I had Talk of the Nation on and Don Tapscott was talking about higher education. My ears perked up immediately [...]

Just a quick note to get the information out into this RSS feed, for those not on Twitter, facebook, or Google+ (who are you guys anyway?): My upcoming book, Mob Rule Learning: camps, unconferences, and trashing the talking head, is now listed on Amazon for preorder!

Mr. Rochester wrote a post on our family blog about his plans on funding his retirement. The previous post on this blog was my take on our conversation. His is a bit different. While he gets almost everything wrong but the “conferences” part about my book, the rest of his post is very amusing (says [...]

In light of NASA’s trouble with the Constellation Project and a possible end to his employment, Mr. Rochester informed me yesterday that he has a new plan for our financial future. Of course, this plan involves my labor and ideas, but who’s counting? He informed me that I should be able to write something better [...]
