Blacklisted by Facebook. Ironically, this really speaks to why I’m doing this.

Great to see so many Kitchener and Guelph folks on the 330 GO train. Where are we at with the 2-way-all-day-every-day conversation? Surely there’s a business case, and we have a shiny new unused platform here in the Royal City.

Looking to buy Canadian? Go to your local farmer’s market. Lots there to choose from.

I've been working on a proof of concept for some modules for college instructors, patching together H5P and Brightspace/D2L templates with the aim of providing a meaningful, tight, and cohesive experience. I'm pleased with the results so far. Whaddya think? www.youtube.com/shorts/WxIXV...

So, what’s new @h5p.bsky.social? I know you were purchased by D2L, & were curious how all this is going to play out. New features? Improvements? Tighter integrations? The people want to know.

Welcome, friends. We’ve been waiting for you! ;)

I’m super excited about the schedule and grateful for the work the staff, board, and volunteers have done to put this year’s festival together. I encourage you to check out a screening (or 5)! guelphfilmfestival.ca

Looking forward to #opened24 this coming week. Hoping we connect with others and extend our conversations through platforms like this one. (& no, I’m not on Twitter/X)

The @guelphfilmfestival needs your support. This year we’re facing a funding shortfall. Any contribution, big or small, will help us continue this important work. And yes! we have charitable status.

One of the highlights of my career has been the opportunity to collaborate with #D2L as they developed #Brightspace. As "User Number 1", it has been exciting to see the platform, company, and community mature.

I just turned down a contract because the team wasn’t committed to accessibility, and they were determined to build resources in Storyline. “Because we like drag and drop” is not a good justification.

I've managed enterprise platforms for almost 25 years. Every time I need to change something in Zoom, I have no idea how to find what I need and make the changes. It's a rat's nest.
