| The Old Betchablog Updated : Fri, 08 Jul 2011 07:22:30 +0000 I am not a prostitute In the past six days I’ve received six emails from various companies asking me if I’d please be so kind as to promote their services, talk about their products or otherwise just mention their wares in a blog post. This is not a new thing – I’ve been getting more and more of these requests [...] Publ.Date : Wed, 16 Dec 2009 13:57:16 +0000 Insightful Thanks to yet another bloody good idea from my mate Mr Robbo, I was inspired to do the same thing he did… This is a Wordle tag cloud that gives an overview of the general zeitgeist of Betchablog. It analyses the words used in my blog posts and presents them in various sizes according to [...] Publ.Date : Wed, 09 Dec 2009 09:23:44 +0000 Vote Early, Vote Often! Yes, it’s that time of year again! The annual Edublog Awards are in full swing, and after a few weeks of people making nominations for various blogs, tweets, wikis and social networks across a really broad range of categories, I’m extremely honoured to have had not one, but two of my online projects – Betchablog [...] Publ.Date : Fri, 11 Dec 2009 08:32:07 +0000 Ways of Working I hope you’ve all been following the K12 Online Conference this year. There have been some fabulous presentations coming out of this year’s event and, as usual, there has been a diverse collection of topics and ideas with something for everyone. You can check out the entire conference at k12online.ning.com I had the privilege of [...] Publ.Date : Thu, 17 Dec 2009 22:09:14 +0000 We’ve moved to www.chrisbetcher.com OK, I actually did it. If you read the previous post, you’ll know that I was thinking of moving this blog to a self-hosted server and doing a bit of a blog makeover in the process. I asked for some feedback via the survey… thank you very much to everyone who kindly responded. The results [...] Publ.Date : Tue, 05 Jan 2010 10:27:43 +0000 The more I know, the more I realise I don’t know Crossposted on the Adobe Education Leaders blog (http://blogs.adobe.com/educationleaders/) I remember the first time I saw Photoshop. I think it must have been about 1993 or so, when I got a free copy that came with a scanner purchased by my school. It must have been a “lite” version of Photoshop because I seem to recall [...] Publ.Date : Sat, 12 Dec 2009 03:21:13 +0000 Staying On Message Over the last year or so, I’ve been invited to present at a number of conferences, including a couple of keynotes. It’s been an enriching experience, and one I enjoy immensely, although I do always end up feeling like I’m “a mile wide and and inch deep”, to coin a well-worn phrase. I feel like [...] Publ.Date : Mon, 07 Dec 2009 11:23:36 +0000 The Wisdom of Leo I’m a big fan of Leo Laporte. Leo is best known these days for running the TWiT network (This Week in Tech), a podcasting empire that publishes more than a dozen excellent tech podcasts like MacBreak Weekly, This Week in Tech, This Week in Google, FLOSS Weekly, Windows Weekly, Net@Night and quite a few others, [...] Publ.Date : Sat, 26 Dec 2009 03:25:17 +0000 The WordPress Tango For a few years now, this blog has been an important place for me to do my “thinking out loud”, and in the process it’s been extremely rewarding to have been able to share some of that public pondering with others. I’ve learned a great deal from the whole blogging experience and although the frequency [...] Publ.Date : Mon, 04 Jan 2010 04:15:42 +0000 Happy New Year Hope 2010 is a great year for you all! This photo is made of three separate images stitched together with Photoshop. It’s the calm before the fireworks storm! I thought it turned out quite well considering I didn’t have a tripod and was just leaning up against the wall to hold the camera steady on [...] Publ.Date : Fri, 01 Jan 2010 14:31:53 +0000 |
