After far too long, I finally ported bavatuesdays over to my WPMu installation using the mapped domains hack. It wasn’t as painless as I would have liked because I have no understanding of MySQL, but despite my dearth of knowledge it worked pretty well –though I have some major clean-up to do.
The upside is I [...]

I am trying to move the bava to a wpmu installation so I have something to blog about. I expect that the site may be down over the next 12-24 hours during the move. I know this is very horrifying for many of you, so I just wanted to encourage you to be strong [...]

Over at the Not For Nothing blog by Kaitlin Butler, a UMW Art major, there is a wild post about The Spore Collective Manifesto that her sculpture class has framed as a way for experimenting more radically with their artwork. Here is how she describes this manifesto:

The original title for this post was: “Just one more NV post, memory bartender”
The Northern Voice 2008 posts have been streaming in regularly, and I can’t add much to their overall reflections because they capture the power of this conference beautifully. That said, I have one more reflection [...]
There’s colors on the street
Red, white and blue
People shufflin’ their feet
People sleepin’ in their shoes
But there’s a warnin’ sign on the road ahead
There’s a lot of people sayin’ we’d be better off dead
Don’t feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forget it, any way I can.
–Quoted from some Canadian

The Moosecamp is here, and things are getting exciting quick. The sessions are up on the wiki, and as soon as the first session started Jen Jones (Injenuity) started Ustreaming it.

So, I have been experimenting with [...]
Some more cool plugins for WordPress
Published by February 19th, 2008 in WordPress and plugins. 0 CommentsI have gotten wind of a couple of cool plugins for WordPress that might be worthy of sharing.
WP AJax Edit Comments
The first I found by way of Alex King’s del.icio.us link to this post, which features five must have WordPress plugins. A while I like them all, and I have to say the WP Ajax Edit [...]
Is that OpenEd in my dashboard?
Published by February 18th, 2008 in WordPress, open education and wordpress multi-user. 5 CommentsDon’t look now, for there just might be some news about WP.com and Open Education in your WordPress dashboard! Seems like the word is getting around about using Wordpress for Open Education (thank you, Stephen).
What’s even better than Mark Ghosh blogging the news further and wider, is that he’s a card-carrying educational WordPresser himself:
