SXSW - Geeking it Up!

Yee haw! Another SXSW week of fun & learning occurred over spring break...and I loved it! Check out the pix from the DearNewOrleans crew - nice filming gang!

You can check out some of the other hashtags @ Dear New Orleans (Facebook Photo pages)

I also got a little lost in the clouds (data, cloud, it's all a bit fluffy to me!) Hence the new fluffy data blog - where I plan to geek out and write about all the amazing tech / geek stuff going on, how I feel about it - and where it may have ramifications for our happy little education community.

Twilight hits it on the head


(or should I say “the neck” instead?)

And Percy Jackson, Lightning Thief,

Shows Gods alive – beyond belief!

And Sapphire’s life: an awesome message

In PUSH, or should I just say Precious?

The Absolutely True Diary of a part-time Indian

Makes me laugh and want to draw again.

And Esperanza really isn’t Rising

From ranch to hovel (but she finds a life again)

And Jericho? Man he just kicks _ _ _!

But does it well with thought and class

You see, these stories have some punch

So just pick up a book at lunch

And maybe then you’ll come to see

A whole new side of the library!

Puzzle on this!

yeah - so geek that I am, I also draw in my spare time to damp down the ADD....and I created a puzzle of sorts - i once attempted to break it down in Photoshop (success) and re-assemble in Flash - so you could actually make the puzzle on line....alas, my action scripting skills not strong enough.....

Silliness!

Well, here I go trying to post a pix.....
