Time to rebrand. I’ve been feeling a malaise in my desire to blog lately. I’ve attributed this to a number of things. With the M.Ed. complete, I’ve been spending more of my time with the family. I don’t want my children to think of me as the man who spends time in the untidy computer [...]

The presentation looks pretty good, especially if you go into full screen mode. I don’t know if it handles really complex powerpoint but the straightforward, page-turner stuff looks pretty good. Now we just need an interface for making the presentations and I won’t need to deal with Microsoft Office ever again! Or at least, not [...]
We’ve all had these. One of the joys of having a blog is that you can whine about them in public. First thing that went wrong. OK – this one is actually my bad. I had forgotten to renew my domain name. My service provider had renewed or kept control of the domain but reset [...]

OK – its 2:15 a.m. and I have no intention of getting to sleep tonight. This brings back memories of all nighters in university, or even late night marking sessions during my early years teaching. Tonight I have nothing so exciting keeping me up. I mentioned a while ago that I have epilepsy, and that [...]
spend a lot of time yesterday and this morning checking their inbox and/or aggregator hoping in vain that there would be something new from OLDaily? Me too.
