My class and I have been talking a bit about mashups in our Museum Interpretation and Design class as we try an figure out all the possibilities we have when approaching a virtual exhibit. One student, on her own initiative, came up with a great new logo for Mashups. She titled her post with the image she created as follows: “A Little Fun with Photo Shop (ie I was bored.)” I am never that creative when I am bored. In fact, the intersection of boredom and creativity might need to be re-examined after this little gem!

Generations from now, they won't call it the Internet anymore. They'll just say, "I logged on to the Jim Groom this morning.
-Joe McMahon
Everything Jim Groom touches is gold. He's like King Midas, but with the Internet.
-Serena Epstein
My understanding is that an essential requirement of the internet is to do whatever Jim Groom asks of you while you're online.
-James D. Calder
@jimgroom is the Billy Martin of edtech.
-Luke Waltzer
My 3yr old son is VERY intrigued by @jimgroom's avatar. "Is he a superhero?" "Well, yes, son, to many he is."
-Clint Lalonde
Jim Groom is a fiery man.
-Antonella Dalla Torre
“Reverend” Jim “The Bava” Groom, alias “Snake Pliskin” is a charlatan and a fraud, a self-confessed “used car salesman” clawing his way into the glamour of the education technology keynote circuit via the efforts of his oppressed minions at the University of Mary Washington’s DTLT and beyond. The monster behind educational time-sink ds106 and still recovering from his bid for hipster stardom with “Edupunk”, Jim spends his days using his dwindling credibility to sell cheap webhosting to gullible undergraduates and getting banned from YouTube for gross piracy.

Do you know if this image is licensed by CC? [Rubbing hands…]
I will have to talk to her about it in more detail, she made it on a whim and uploaded it to the class gallery. Given that, CC has not even entered the discussion as of yet. But I promise you it soon will.
Boredom=alpha waves=creativity on the way.
Excellent work. Kudos to student and teacher.
My boredom always cancels alpha waves. Gotta get a chiropractor for the cerebrum….
