This is the last blog post I’ll write here. If you want to skip my droning on about why, you can just head over to the new blog, Open Monologue, at robwall.ca. If you want to stay subscribed to this blog, I’ll be auto-posting the ed-tech links that I bookmark at del.icio.us so and I’ll [...]

It occurred to me earlier that starting today, there are four significant countdowns in my life: Tomorrow (Oct. 26) Apple releases Leopard.
