Just What Is An Unconference & How Do I Host One?
I have yet to attend one of these, but I really would love to see one in action. (Still need to find that $million I misplaced so I can fly around to all the events I’d like to attend) Anyway…I followed this link via Stephen Downs of Ewan McIntosh’s 10 Top Tips for Unplanning the […]
Tracking Converstations/Comments
I think it’s important in a learning, historical and social sense to keep track of comments or questions that I have posted on other blogs. I think this is the thinking for many bloggers and for me more so in the last few days as I have had several comments on my blog. My concern […]
Yuxt – Video Bookmarking
Okay, maybe you’ve seen this, but I thought it was cool. I came across today via David Airey’s blog. I was looking at an example of typography videos that he was sharing. Then my train of thought went to what is there on elearning. Saw Mr. Stephen Downs. Then I tried Tony Karrer (no videos […]
Orientation Day at Work
Today I am stuck with preparing, organizing and facilitating orientation for new hires. The reason I say stuck is twofold. One, everyone else in my office is conveniently on holidays (I need to better plan my holidays). Two, we do the same old routine month after month, PowerPoint presentation after PowerPoint presentation, and paper copy […]

I love taking photos when I travel, on day trips, and of friends and family. I recently found out I have taken over […]
Headlines That Got Me To Read More
Well a week off for me a short bit ago and catching up on emails, voicemail, meetings and life has put me a bit behind with reading my feeds. I thought since I am behind and some items I’ll just post some of the headlines/links that I found interesting from the last 2 weeks. Laser […]
LMS Project Finally Begins – LMS (Day 1 part 4)
The final piece of our kick off meeting for the day was the LMS. Yeah!!!!!! Can you see my happy dance!!!! We didn’t go into as much detail for our piece yet as it will be the final phase of the whole over all system. The intranet will go up as the main portal to […]
LMS Project Finally Begins – Doc Management (Day 1 part 3)
The second set of meetings for the project centred around the component piece that will manage our policies and procedures. Currently we have approximately 5000+ pieces of paper (I think) that represent our P & P within the hospital. This has little focus within my position (nor do I want it to) but I did […]
LMS Project Finally Begins – Intranet (Day 1 part 2)
We have been using an intranet system that is loosely a bunch of word documents converted into html and posted up on one server. A few people have gone to the extreme of using Publisher so as to make the “pages” a little more exciting, but that is the extent of our current intranet. Our […]
