Saw this on twitter today – http://www.teachthought.com/learning/21st-century-learning-is-not-a-program/ “Many people tend to associate 21st century learning with digital technology.

I was saving this title for another post because Flash Gordon is one of my top ten favorite movies of all time, but I’ve reached that frustration point where I need to write and the title was on my mind, so here it goes. Why am I frustrated? Well, I’ve been working on a technology…

Amazing. My Do Together vs. Do In Order Alice How To Video has over twice as many views as my rebootED interview with Dan Pink. Crazy. Even crazier, my Bredford Cart iPad Activation video has 5X the views of the Dan Pink video. I thought the Dan Pink interview was really good. Maybe I’ve got…

The Executive Briefing Center. A magical place where customers go to become enamored with products or ecosystems or solutions. Cisco, Brocade, Apple, Google and Microsoft. I’ve been to several of these corporate spaces and I’m struck by the differences of each. Cisco’s was over the top impressive. Like visiting OZ. But look behind the curtain…

In a perfect EdTech world, I would give every teacher an ultrabook running Ubermix, an iPad with AppleTV and a Projector or other Large Format Display (LFD) device. Perhaps even two. This would be the basic “Technology Package”. I’d wrap it around Google Apps for Education and the web. Then I’d throw in a classroom…

It’s finally happened! Someone (2x specifically) has made a true HTML5 RDP client for Chrome. No public gateways, no server side clients. Just an RDP client in the browser. I think I am in heaven. Now I really can use a Chromebook and get some Windows Admin work done too. Check it out – http://www.2x.com/rdp-client/chrome/?c=1
