A few notes:

  • I finally fixed the arrangement of my page. You can go straight to my content from the front page. I also reorganized the menus. It’s crisper and easier to navigate. Check it out and tell me what you think.
  • The folks from TEDxNYED released the videos of the various talks of that weekend. Check out Jeff Jarvis, Michael Wesch, Dan Meyer, Chris Lehmann, and more for yourself here! [TEDxNYED]
  • If you’re a video game geek like me, you’ll appreciate this 8-bit dedication to the destruction of New York City. Awesome. [YouTube]
  • Very few music artists make real money. Before or after the advent of the MP3. E.D. Kain explains. [True / Slant]
  • An excellent breakdown of Charlie Crist’s veto of the notorious Florida education bill that would have introduced performance pay measures among other things. [Sherman Dorn]
  • A Yankees-Sox related death. Not Jeter-approved. [Boston Channel]

Support my work as I share stories, insights, and advice with research from a sociological perspective that will (hopefully) transform and inspire educational systems now and forever.
