Testimonials:
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.

The ds106 99: #62 Love Birds
I have dreamed of doing this scene from Hitchcock’s The Birds as an animated GIF for a very long time, and now it is done (though don’t ask me about the size!).

The ds106 99: #60 “I either lead this bunch or end it right now”
Tried some fuzzy tool effects to mask silhouettes in GIMP with mixed results. This animated GIF of Pike in a stand off with the Gorch brothers didn’t come out exactly the way I wanted. That said, I liked the background … Continue reading

The ds106 99: #59 “Who the hell is THEY?!”
This is a classic scene from The Wild Bunch, and while Edmund O’Brien isn’t all that pretty in this film, he is awesome as the “old goat” tag along who epitomizes the hard life of a bandit past his prime. … Continue reading
