Have you seen this?

  • I saw it for the first time this week on youtube, though it has been around and revised a few times by Carl Fisch. He remixed content from David Warlick, Ray Kurzweil, Ian Jukes, and Thomas Friedman.  It highlights issues of globalization first mentioned in “The World is Flat” by Friedman .

\”Did you know?\”

  • University of Washington students have created a system for enhancing video imagery using still photographs. The video explanation is a little technical for most of my ninth-graders, but the concept is very interesting and my techies will love being in the loop. I found the information on the TechCrunch blog.
  • My children can’t believe they have seen this. I am now texting messages. I’ve refused in the past because my thumbs just aren’t fast enough, and I absolutely hate trying to remember which initials I can use as a short cut. Now I’ve signed up for Jott and am leaving myself and everyone else messages just by dialing and talking. I love it.
