I have been using the uTIPu program to record short videos of me using the on-line grade-book program WebGrader for teachers at my school. It is so easy to use. After I record what I do on my computer I can save it and upload it to the website. I can share it by giving them a link http://www.utipu.com/app/invited/id/4822db26fe8841f294c9748e01a76fbf (this one is a sample clip of one that I did) or send them an email invintation to watch the video at the website.

From Gizmoz.com. Thanks Hall for another piece of web “tool” to occupy my time.

Pandora Radio and others like it are in danger of going away.

As a music listener I have a very eclectic taste in music I have become an avid listener of Pandora.  Because of the amount of money that these Internet radio groups have to pay in royalties they will not be able to operate. Please read the article in the Washington Post for more details.

What is with me?

It is now Setp. 20 and this is the first time I really had time and desire to post here.

The start of the year brought me a new room for the lab and soon an ITV lab. Any time now I will get the student broadcast going and having weekly shows.

I am currently at the Midwest DEN Institute near Chicago. Yeah!!!

I can’t wait to get new ideas and tools to bring back to the school and share with the staff.

Later….
