Lighten up, Francis.

Change your mind.

July 18, 2012 by robin2go Leave a Comment

I’ve just stumbled across THNKR, a YouTube channel of an amazing collection of videos by @radicalmedia whose sole purpose is to expose you to people, stories, places and thinking that will change your mind. Check out their trailer, below. I am a little bit in love with them. Okay, a lot in love with them. […]

It’s important to love what you’re doing.

July 13, 2012 by robin2go Leave a Comment

Sir Richard Branson has always been a man with a vision, and in this short video interview for the GREAT Britain campaign he lists, among other things, why it’s important to love what you’re doing. And that to me is the takeaway. Love what you’re doing. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Have integrity. Couldn’t really […]

The rest of the story.

September 9, 2011 by renegade element

Last week, my friend Tim (@thecobblr) posted a link on Twitter to a YouTube video of two boys trying to replicate the magician’s tablecloth trick, with somewhat mixed results.

As videos go, it was a little giggle. But I noticed it looked like ther…

That’s code for something, right?

July 7, 2011 by renegade element

The QR Code: Up-and-coming, or flash-in-the-pan? It seems that manufacturers are anxious to try every new technology that comes along, and marketers are no better. Magazine ads are rife with those pixelated boxes. Business cards offer QR codes as a way…

29 WAYS TO STAY CREATIVE from TO-FU on Vimeo.

This morning, @LaurenEBeal posted this video that struck home. I’ve been having some mental blockage with my blogging, and it is all piling up relentlessly. It also doesn’t help that I’ve been playing with…

I want you to know.

If you do nothing else today, I want you to spend five minutes of your time watching this PSA. Believe me, I’ll wait.

Engagement at TLT Symposium.

March 24, 2011 by renegade element

We are two days away from one of my favorite events of the year. While the full name is a bit of a mouthful–The Penn State Symposium for Teaching and Learning with Technology–we fondly refer to it simply as Symposium. This is an event packed to overf…

No inhibitions.

November 30, 2010 by renegade element 4 Comments

I’ve said it time and time again; video makes me uncomfortable. I want desperately to be more natural and confident with it, and keep trying to push myself in baby steps. But what I really, truly want? I want to be this kid. I want to be flat out, balls-to-the-wall myself and not worry about […]

One of my profs noticed I turned in my homework at 4:30 am (I take the night shifts to take care of my brother) and he sent me this.

Some profs have hearts y'all!
