Greg McVerry@HPS_Vanessa miniseries not necessary for the show, some people actually put it in different parts of season one. You can skip the last season, or at least second half
Greg McVerry@dajbelshaw Or just do it all from your own site. Except LinkedIn I don't want fill my friends feeds with my bacon. though @microdotblog Teams account is a really good LinkedIn syndication tool
Greg McVerry@UConnTechComm @UConn ugghh homophones
Greg McVerry@UConnTechComm @UConn Excited to here about data science growth. We are going to make CT a massive NAICS 5415 job and company factory
Greg McVerry@UConnTechComm @UConn revenue is the most important. don't build towards your next raise if you want to be around in two to five years and bring on investments
Greg McVerry@UConnTechComm @UConn helpful if you spell your website correctly https://bit.ly/2iT8WWc
Greg McVerry@iamjessklein the context switching gets me, squeezed a client meeting in between two classes and I didn't have enough time to wash off one face before putting on the next
Greg McVerry@ImroxanneShante Hey #HipHopEdu what say you? For #InternationalWomensDay I tried to add a @wikipedia article about Cindy Campbell as forgotten founder of HipHop. Folks disagree: https://bit.ly/3qAowIh Say Cindy "just threw some parties" I think had she not been a promoter no DJ Kool Herc
Greg McVerry@Ann123abc456xyz @kozinnski @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman thx for the h/t & accessibility issue. Hopefully well marked up semantic HTML and machine readable recipes help. I am watching my kids learn to read and accessibility tools just part of the their literacy environment, close captions, screen readers, voice search...etc
Greg McVerry@Ann123abc456xyz @kozinnski @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman Find passion, get blog.tell all my students. Those who make it as independent bloggers, TikTokers, Vloggers work around the clock, usually come from privileged background that allow you to keep up the fake hustle dream. Still many jobs for food writers and writers, so write
Greg McVerry@Ann123abc456xyz @kozinnski @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman I stopped using free wordpress sites with students when I had a student writing about recovering from eating disorders and kept getting served up fat shaming ads. The ad networks are predatory and the chances of making a living on CPM/SEO for a food blogger so slim.
Greg McVerry@Ann123abc456xyz @kozinnski @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman It is also important to me as a teacher. I teach an intro to teaching class that follows: tell your story, learn something, teach something, do something. A large majority of website products are food and/or healthy living websites.
Greg McVerry@Ann123abc456xyz @kozinnski @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman someone though put in context for me: while recipe kruff almost as universally hated as cell phone providers. it is an outsider seeing a "community" as a market and looking to "disrupt" it without the needs of the community in mind Not atool for food bloggers by food bloggers
Greg McVerry@rowasc @kozinnski @Ann123abc456xyz @libraryseedbank @redman Paper and pen the GOAT tech IMO
Greg McVerry@kozinnski @Ann123abc456xyz @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman that's where I agree where I disagree is assuming that friction in UX is a way to protect those content creators. aimly and stories, community, teaching, licensing photos. Lets spend money in places that reinvest in those. Don't know how it works beyond, "get a blog"
Greg McVerry@kozinnski @Ann123abc456xyz @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman So the only natural reaction when searching for a recipe and having to sift through stories is, "WTF do I have to read this story when I ask for a recipe?" Followed by, "darn now I got fish guts on my phone." Why do recipe sites stink. Cant an app to make it better?
Greg McVerry@kozinnski @Ann123abc456xyz @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman Please don't equate a parent's lack of time or tech knowledge as laziness. Lack of understanding yes but its a cultural difference as well. When a parent (my age)in town found out I had a blog. The response was. "You have a blog, I never knew a blogger."
Greg McVerry@kozinnski @Ann123abc456xyz @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman (I know if I was vegetarian or vegan again the risk would be reduced) ...but I legit think my kids would starve themselves. McVerrys known to hold an appetite for a bit.
Greg McVerry@kozinnski @Ann123abc456xyz @libraryseedbank @rowasc @redman The second one is...I don't want to scroll whenmy hands are covered in raw chicken... That's a big part of it. Salmonella be nasty
