- @erinsells Turn off the "age me" filter. in reply to erinsells #
- @erinsells That or looking in the mirror while getting one's hair cut. in reply to erinsells #
- @erinsells But I use Brizzly once a week. Twhirl is constnat. Just my preference. @wpwend42 in reply to erinsells #
- @erinsells Brizzly requires you to have web open and be on the tab to read. Twhirl runs in background. I use both for different things. in reply to erinsells #
- @roopikarisam @erinsells I know people who have a blanket statement on syllabus that says they'll use student's essays, barring opt-out. in reply to roopikarisam #
- @roopikarisam In an ideal world, yes. But in an ideal world, you'd also be paid a fair wage for your labor. in reply to roopikarisam #
- @erinsells Click "home" at the bottom of the Twhirl app. in reply to erinsells #
- @erinsells You pass! in reply to erinsells #
- @ibogost Didn't they re-release New Coke within the last year as well? in reply to ibogost #
- My newest on @ProfHacker discusses how to hold "Digital Office Hours": http://bit.ly/6d8hha. #
- @zephoria It probably has something to do with its moral crisis since you're asking it to work at Microsoft Research. in reply to zephoria #
- @sfirth605 Congratulations. in reply to sfirth605 #
- Trying to quickly finish a @ProfHacker post. Perversely decided to turn on Twhirl. That won't distract me, will it? #
- Going home! Commute (and westward) ho! #
- @chutry No more of those "foreign" films for you! in reply to chutry #
- .@mattthomas Thanks. I think I *might* indeed be going too hard, trying to get them to parse hard book (Lot 49) with hard theory (McLuhan). in reply to mattthomas #
- @clioweb Don't look too deep into this mystery. The last person who did was MC Escher. And we know what happened to him. in reply to clioweb #
- Somehow my tweet count has ballooned ridiculously. I *promise* you that I haven't tweeted 21,000+ times. #
- @stakats Looks like it could be a centrifuge: http://bit.ly/8CxC15. in reply to stakats #
- @HunterStofan Read "Yellow Wallpaper"? in reply to HunterStofan #
- @kfitz "Priming"! That's exactly what I need to think @ doing. I don't expect them to know it all, but to react in some way & they won't. #
- @kfitz They're silent as the grave. Not even incredulous whimpers about how weird/hard Lot 49 is. Thanks for ideas. in reply to kfitz #
- @kfitz @billiehara Maybe I need to try using pairs more often rather than small groups. I probably throw too many lifelines. in reply to kfitz #
- @buzzdad Hmm. Don't have the tech for it, but I could maybe kludge something together without the tech. in reply to buzzdad #
- @erochest That's the sort of suggestion I want! in reply to erochest #
- @billiehara Haven't tried that. Will give it a whirl. in reply to billiehara #
- @micahvandegrift I like that idea and use it myself, altho this classroom lacks the capability. in reply to micahvandegrift #
- Thanks to everyone who said hi to my class earlier today, by the way. #
- We're doing *cool* (to my mind) stuff in class: media, technology, Pynchon, wikis, etc. But it's like pulling teeth. #
- I'm having the hardest time getting my 400-level seminar (http://bit.ly/5MYDBo) students to talk. No natural talkers among them.Suggestions? #
- Trying to explain hashtags to #e399 #
- i'm show twitter (not tqitter) to a class. say hi! #
- @BenRobertson You get another chance in just about 5 minutes! in reply to BenRobertson #
- I'm not sure if I'll ever live down that misspelling of Twitter. But I'm going to show another class Twitter in 10 minutes. So I'll try. #
- Now explaining hashtags to #eng399. #
- demonstrating tqitter to a class. can people say hi? #
- @retius I really like their album. Haven't heard the EP. Worth checking out? in reply to retius #
- @publichistorian Will have to check out Wan Light. in reply to publichistorian #
- @fearv So where's the Peggle slash fiction? in reply to fearv #
- Each time I've clicked on a @nytimes link today, I've wondered how what will be my dominant news source when they start charging in 2011. #
- @publichistorian Do you have any favorites there? I'm partial to Acid House Kings and Club 8. in reply to publichistorian #
- @publichistorian Oh, I know. Labrador and I are old friends. I guess I don't know their whole roster as well as I thought I did. in reply to publichistorian #
- How have I not heard of The Radio Dept. until now? I'm *supposed* to be the master of all things Swedish, gauzy, and sweet. #music #
- @roopikarisam I really prefer *Passing* for this reason. in reply to roopikarisam #
- Wait. Is it 10pm and I'm done with tomorrow's #classprep? Not really sure what to do with myself. #
- @avantgame The cake is a lie! in reply to avantgame #
- I <3 me some http://www.random.org. #
- @kfitz I sent it to this person's Gmail. I've sent a test invite to one student to see how quickly it processes. in reply to kfitz #
- @cscannella This explains why I have still to figure out how to use QS effectively, right? #
- RT @markgammon: The 3 Facebook Settings Every User Should Check Now http://bit.ly/7Otg2j /via @rww #
- @kfitz Hm. Haven't invited students yet, but a colleague still has to receive hers that I sent a few weeks ago. in reply to kfitz #
- Listening to The Lodger for the first time. Despite owning this album for an embarrassing number of months. #music #
- @kfitz @jmcclurken @captain_primate @billiehara @billwolff Have you invited students to #Wave yet? Wondering how long invitations will take. #
- Why am I only now figuring out how wonderful Stickies are in OS X? #
- @mattthomas It's not exactly mellow, just not as bouncy as I expected from a group connected as closely to Tough Alliance as they are. in reply to mattthomas #
- Rolling through the morning mail and listening to Little Dragon. #music #
- @mattthomas I have yet to really get into jj. A little more mellow than what I want most of the time. But it's Swedish, so I keep it around. in reply to mattthomas #
- @jbj Epic. Win. in reply to jbj #
- @jbj That's some weird rhetorical figure that I just used, isn't it? Not quite catachresis, but I can't think of the name at the moment. in reply to jbj #
- @jcmeloni Hmm. I wish I could see him with eyes that hadn't met him in person first. in reply to jcmeloni #
- @jbj #1: Because you jump on them. #2: Because you proselytize for THS. in reply to jbj #
- @sherah1918 Well, today was only first 30 pages. They've got time. in reply to sherah1918 #
- @sherah1918 Didn't get the reaction I wanted. Normally expect them to be full-on befuddled. Just silent instead. Trying to draw them out. in reply to sherah1918 #
- @viola_lasmana There are 13 students in the class. They looked a bit dubious when I explained it today. Fingers crossed. in reply to viola_lasmana #
- @georgeonline Love your Spring 2010 soundtrack! #
- Just submitted course request form for Fall 2010…despite being very unsure if I'll be here. #
- @cscannella The whole album is fantastic. in reply to cscannella #
- @jmcclurken I'm not sure how *I* would cite it, but for @jbj and @georgeonline it's just another line under the heading "Kickassery." in reply to jmcclurken #
- @ibogost Sappho. Her work's only fragments, so it's easier to fill in the gaps (read: lesb[os]ian scenes!) in reply to ibogost #
- RT @JenServenti: NEA is seeking a Program Analyst for their Office of Res & Analysis. Apps due 2/1/10. More info: http://is.gd/6zg54 #
- @jcmeloni P'rhaps so re: @georgeonline. @jbj is going to hypnotize you into buying it. (And then will jump on you.) in reply to jcmeloni #
- @jbj George is holding a map of Level 1-1 of Super Mario Bros. You aren't going to jump anyone. You're going to sell them a timeshare. in reply to jbj #
- @jbj I've always thought of you and @georgeonline as mandarins. in reply to jbj #
- @sherah1918 Since we're doing Pynchon after McLuhan, his take on the postal service explicates "medium is the message" rather well. in reply to sherah1918 #
- @BenRobertson This is my 4th semester in a row teaching it. Kind of a standard for me now. in reply to BenRobertson #
- Time to start #reading *Crying of Lot 49* for the first time this year. #classprep #
- @lnakamur We can haz linkz? (To syllabi?) in reply to lnakamur #
- @kfitz We did gyros tonight! in reply to kfitz #
- @jlredu Nice looking course site. in reply to jlredu #
- @dradrea Thanks very much! in reply to dradrea #
- @cforster @sterflu Not necessarily. But understanding how data is orgnized matters. I want all of my undergrads to read HTML too. in reply to cforster #
- @sterflu @cforster And undergrads *do* need to learn such informational literacy. #
- @sterflu @cforster I like @zotero (or Endnote) b/c they teach metadata manipulation in ways reg. bibliographies don't. in reply to sterflu #
- @ryancordell I really like Plath's "Morning Song." But @joegilbert's got great suggestions too. in reply to ryancordell #
- @sterflu So linkable metadata is the desire? Or the elimination of dupicate entries? in reply to sterflu #
- @sterflu Hence the need to tag things yourself. Creating metadata *is* an important thing we need to be aware of. Just look @ Google Books. in reply to sterflu #
- @sterflu Do you mean that I should require students to fill out the Author, Title, etc. by hand? Or that we shouldn't trust @Zotero? in reply to sterflu #
- @samplereality Thanks. That was one I'd stumbled across. Good to know it's worked for you. in reply to samplereality #
- Here's the final version of my Annotated @Zotero Group Bibliography: http://bit.ly/67K3Rl. #
- @theyellowedpage Well, the wiki is for my classes to use. It's where the assignments get accessed by students. in reply to theyellowedpage #
- @theyellowedpage There's both. Naturally.
in reply to theyellowedpage # - Never sure if I should point people on Twitter to finished assignments on my wiki or on my blog. #
- @kakennedy @billwolff Don't miss @samplereality's assignment from Fall 2009 either: http://bit.ly/8tDrxa. in reply to kakennedy #
- @billwolff I like the *idea* of them annotating each other's entries…but seems like it might be one step too many. in reply to billwolff #
- Ditto. RT @amandafrench: I wish there were a Twitter client that synced w/ iPhone Twitter client & remembered last tweet I read both places. #
- @billwolff Hmm. That's interesting. <cogitating> in reply to billwolff #
- @samplereality What plugin are you using for CC on your blog? #
- @billwolff Will do. Have a draft up at my blog now, but it's changing this morning a bit. in reply to billwolff #
- @erinsells And your top 10 is listed where? in reply to erinsells #
- As I'm finishing my @Zotero annotated bibliography assignment, I'm wishing that changes in your library could be made to sync to group libs. #
- @erinsells But I'm pretty behind on 2009 music still. My favorite of 2008 that I got to in 2009 was Crystal Castles. in reply to erinsells #
- @erinsells They have a good chance of being in top 10 as well. Phoenix would be up there too and Pains of Being Pure at Heart, I think. in reply to erinsells #
- @erinsells I haven't gotten around to that. But I can tell you that Animal Collective was at the very top. in reply to erinsells #
- Stream the new @LosCampesinos album, *Romance is Boring*: http://bit.ly/6ssHnv. Will almost certainly be in my 2010 top 10. #music #
- Having lost a full day's work due to stomach flu on Friday, I'm working until late afternoon, when it's time for some Haiti-related service. #
