Tweets
- @JosephGalbo Really hard to categorize tweets based on keywords, just because there are so few of them in a tweet... 14 hrs ago
- Though it is categorizing any tweet with the word "fan" as "sports" (wrong!), but not my only tweet ever with the word "sport"‽ 14 hrs ago
- This says I tweet mainly about education, technology, and... healthy living (?)... fun topic-izer of tweets: http://165.124.128.196:8000 14 hrs ago
- @lrainie As it is, each time I start a class session with "Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin..." fewer and fewer recognize it. 3 days ago
- @lrainie It's hard for me to do anything menacingly, and I'd try it for a classroom entrance, but I suspect the reference would be lost... 3 days ago
- @lrainie That is my new goal! Channel Omar more often :). 3 days ago
- @lrainie Reducible in part to "who said it wasn't already all a game"? :) 3 days ago
- More updates...

First summer conference: Hyperlinked Society
As I noted earlier, I am off later today to a small conference at UPenn on the Hyperlinked Society. Anybody who’s anybody in hyperlinkiness is there, so it should be a fun, if intense, one-day event. I’ve only met about eight or nine of these folks in person, and probably about the same over email, [...]
Yarrr.
Went to see District B13 on opening day with two friends. Throw in the popcorn and soda, and we were at nearly $50. It’s especially expensive to see films in New York, but it’s expensive to see them anywhere. I still go and see a movie whenever there is anything remotely watchable in the theater. [...]

Proud Alum
I am quite happy to find that the University of Washington (which I tricked into giving me a Ph.D.) is the epicenter of World of Warcraft. Right on. My undergrad institution ranks a lowly 16th. Buffalo is 63rd, Quinnipiac is 385th. These need to be weighted by enrollment, obviously.
Dogears and classroom ROI

Bloggers as Villagers
Today, I share a birthday with Marshall McLuhan, the patron saint of Wired magazine and only communication professor to get a walk-on in a Woody Allen flick (WMV – 2Mb). His aphorisms still show up with some regularity, not least the idea that electronic media would lead to a “global village.” I’ve written and talked [...]
Coding Ships
Though as a Democrat (yes, I got fed up with the local Greens and besides, I was hoping I could have an impact on the primary process), I should be scandalized by this, my inner Neal Stephenson and my inner Monty Python are both loving the idea of a H1B cruise ship, hovering (possibly) in [...]
