It was great to have roughly 600 people all getting the energy of social enterprise. The biggest supporter of the conference was Steve Case's Foundation (the founder of AOL).

I was just at the Council on Foundations meeting in San Diego, courtesy of one of our funders (and generally cool people) , the Community Technology Foundation of California. We had a session on the applications of information technology to helping communities of color. I was talking about our human rights work and had some great discussions about working for immigrant rights and against trafficking.

I attended the " Tag You Are It " session at NTC by Ami Dar and Katrin Verclas and was exposed to a lot of new technology tools. So, I set up a little action learning project ( cambodia4kids ) to play with these tools to see how they might be useful for technology infused curriculum or nonprofit use. I love ( and hate ) how blogs, rss, tags, and these other tools are so right-brained and being able to indulge in some non-linear thinking. on the downside, I feel so distracted and can sp

Before I go on about this interesting artist/social activist project, I found it in the blogsphere. I've been experimenting with cambodia4kids.org blog to test out the instructions/advice I'm reading on various npotech sites about blogs. My own little action learning project.

Marnie Webb recently posted an excellent primer on selecting a blogging tool called "So you want get started blogging?" I was in the process of pulling together this information for an afterschool program at ctc and a few others. I was hoping there was something very straightforward and easy to understand about the tool selection and I stumbled upon it.

The Gateway to Educational Materials is a Consortium effort to provide educators with quick and easy access to thousands of educational resources found on various federal, state, university, non-profit, and commercial Internet sites. I used it while I was searching for lesson plans for the cluster workshop on Cambodian Culture I'm teaching for K-2 and it turned up resources that I hadn't seen before.

ClockLink.com provides analog and digital clocks that you can easily embed in your web page with any time zone of the world. I can answer the question "What time is it in Cambodia?" without missing a beat. This could be an interesting resource for teaching time zones for social studies or math teachers.

An article entitled " Info overload functions as roadblock to better memory " The article makes the point that the problem is a loss of focus. People aren???t paying attention, aren???t taking the time to do one thing at a time and make the whole experience a permanent memory. Hmm. I'm doing about five simultaneously posts right now.

My laptop died last week in Chicago at the NTC. So, it was a bit difficult for me to find anything to laugh about. I couldn't find anything amusing for my favorite holiday, April Fool's Day and was just going to reference what I wrote on April 1, 2003. Found some inspiration on my favorite blog at the Tombstone Generator.

My colleague, Cheryl Hanback, is working on a project for her masters degree in instructional design. She needs as many people as possible to fill out this 1-minute survey about pain incurred from sitting at a computer. [link]. About eight years ago, I had a RSI injury from spending way too many hours in front of the computer and not taking breaks or using proper posture.
