So….so so so so so so, it’s time for a little walk down WPMu history lane. Last year at this time I was desperately scrambling for a way to have sitewide tags for UMW Blogs. I found the solution in Dr. Mike’s hack shared on the WordPress forums here, but it was kind of a [...]

Published June 11th, 2008 in wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 2 CommentsSo the last two days have been a lot of fun, I have been mapping all the domains I currently have to one WordPress Multi-User installation, and I’m glad to say it has worked like a charm (you can find my previous discussions of the process here and here).

The Design of Openness
Published June 7th, 2008 in Uncategorized, insructional technology, wordpress multi-user and wpmu. 2 CommentsPhoto thanks to Bern@t’s Flickr stream.
Cole Camplese recently had a provocative post about open design that has me thinking about a few things that might frame some of the ideas that I think are key to imagining a loosely joined, open, and mashable community for teaching and learning.

So, in short, after seeing stuff like this scattered through the bava:
Žižek has turned into Žižek. Other examples include “a cinema-véritésque film”, industry’s has turned [...]
