Thank you for this information. I will research to see how to best integrate this within my communication class where first year students often have a difficult time expressing their emotions clearly. Maybe there are some types of (light) exercises that I can find on the web for them to work on.

Hey-ho!

You noticed that too, huh?

I find it interesting how those "different" accounts are all trying to push the same buttons for you...

Wait... What? Did you send this as a tip to Adam Weinstein? I really like his take on American politics. Off to the google-mobile!

Very nice...

If I'm not mistaken, I've been to a couple of photoshoots and, I guess, there's a rack where the subject can pick their own outfit to be styled by stylists.

I really like your analysis. This entire thread has helped me understand gamer identity much better. It is tribalism. Society reflecting online. Plus ça change, plus c'est pareil! I feel I still need to understand what is gaming culture, though.

Kevin, this was lovely and powerful. Makes me want to go back to Racialicious, it's been too long. I'll be keeping an eye out for you! And thanks...

Hey ho! Hailing from Montreal! Gawker media is an interesting mix because people come from all over this lil'planet to chat and chase away boredom. I lurk more than I comment because of the nature (and really the amount of my) work. Hoping that 2013 allows me to comment more (and not because I'll be able to submit to…

WOW! You have just *made* my day! I've been having a rather crappy 2012 and 2013 ushered with me losing my keys (with both my flash drives) and lots of work that I didn't back up because "oh, I have time!" Bookmarking this new site ASAP!

You used the word "crikey," so I'm thinking you may not be American? If so, keep in mind that women taking their husband's name is a cultural norm here. I'm from Montreal where we do not do such thing and when my (American) mother-in-law saw my social security card with my maiden name on it, she made me go back using…

Thanks, I think you just gave me an idea...

Like you, I stopped using apps for my To-Dos (I used to pay for Remember The Milk, really?). I don't use a white board though I bought one (it's currently in my office closet waiting for a friend to stop by and help me hang it). I use a giant Post-It newsprint.

I definitely see how this could be useful. Not only can you write notes but you can mark a spot and record the lecture, whe clicking on the mark it plays back exactly what was said at that moment!

Maybe that's the key. I'm trying so hard to get a gadget that would help but it may be more useful to people attending a presentation than to those delivering it.

I really like their website and it's what sold me on it but it seems it's better suited to someone attending a presentation than giving one as Saidear has replied.

I have been seriously considering getting this device for about a year. I held off and got an iPad 3 for my birthday (thanks, lil'bro!) I wish I could say the iPad is all I need but I have a hard time doing everything I need to do like: updating posts on my intranet course site, adding pictures to my site is not…

Can anyone explain to me why the colors are neon? And if those are "real" colors? By that I mean not in reaction to light?

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Between yours and hoozatz's answer, I'm hoping to work something good for my students. Cheers!
