Talking #fedwiki to think about #digped and #indieweb unity

I had a wonderful conversation today with Dave Bovill and Ward Cunningham about Federated Wiki today. For over an hour we hacked around with a tool designed to support the open Web. Federated Wiki works as a space between wikis and blogs. Wikis seek a collective voice. Blogs represent individual thinking. Fedwiki is about forkable thoughts. I was turned on t

@flukeout @chadsansing @omnignorant @humphd Had to go long form a little bit, but the thoughts have been chaotic. After watching people fool around with Thimble for awhile it is a long time before they start asking for help on the code side. They point to the preview side and say, "How do I do this?" or "What went wrong here?" So I am thinking what if the ba

I was at that very moment searching for easy CSS slidedecks. I wanted to make a multimodal poem. Kind of reflecting on time and the quality of writing. Sometimes ideas burst and other times they retreat. I was just

At #MozFest we were asked about our vision for Mozilla in 2020. After my first #openscience community call https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/sciencelab-calls-nov19-2015 I got to thinking about Laura's efforts to lead a launch of a Research Lab. In my 2020 vision I would see this Lab being the leading institute for design based research. Mainly because if

Reflections as a Participant Leader at #mozfest

Opening My Class Has Damaged my Workflow #ccourses #clmooc #edu106

In my last edition of the #edu106 newsletter, Albatross News , I detailed how I was going to open up our private class stream. I flipped the switch And I might have ruined my workflow. In the class students have their own blogs. I use an RSS feed and the class stream to aggregate our work. I would leave comments on both their blog and the private stream. On

As part of #edu106 we are learning about collaborative writing.So I decided to ask a bunch of people I don't know about something I know nothing about. Basically to help me collect source. This was the orgininal post on Medium: I keep reading hints that there is a debate brewing among technologists that the mobile web is dead and should die. Read recently th
