My TAFE students keep finding this. Sigh, is it time to reclaim my blog? But my Twitter serves the purpose this blog once had. I think I might have to force myself to write a post a week. blargh.
A student in my TAFE class, Tim Phabmixay, is gifted with an artistic talent. He was kind enough to draw some cartoon river otters for me. He has allowed me to use them for developing some imagery for the Keoonik project.
Here’s my first take at a graphic for the masthead. I will probably just use [...]
Today I added advertising to this site. Not a lot, but some. Is this a big deal? Lots of sites have advertising. Lots of blogs have advertising. In fact probably everyone has advertising.
I have resisted the urge to add advertising to this blog since it’s been up for a few reasons. Pretty much the key [...]
So previously I mentioned that I was dropping the Cubiquitous name until I found something more appropriate for my project. Well, it took less time than I thought.
Introduction Keoonik,a smart tour system.
Keoonik (cue-nick, if I have that right) is an Otter in Mi’kmaq (actually all wabanaki) mythology. Keoonik and Ableegumooch the Rabbit get [...]

You might be wondering what will happen to the [...]
So, here I am at Miller TAFE, teaching my students, administering a test when I enter my URL to check something. Oh my poor sad sorry site, with my hopelessly out of date LOST prediction.
And even to further my shame, it turns out that design that I always figured should be “big enough”, isn’t. This room has [...]
Okay, here in Australia, we’re still some 6 hours away from the last episode of LOST and I still have time to throw one more theory out there.
Before I do, can I just say Season 6 rocked! What a payoff!
What I loved:
Richard’s story was awesome!
So much insight into the island, it makes you realise [...]
The other day in my class, a student asked why we can’t just use the width and height attributes of the img tag to resize photos to make thumbnails.
Here’s a page that shows not. So these people are selling a (goofy?) product. Presumably they don’t want to piss me, a potential customer, off. So they [...]
