Mars Edit is a desktop blogging app for the Mac. I’ve read from multiple locations that Windows Live Writer is the best. I’ve used it and I like it. Now let’s see what Mars Edit can do for me.

I’m going to get back to lecturing and workshop style instruction for my Web Design 2 class at El Centro. A post on Signal vs. Noise entitled, Knowing ‘How’, talks about how the skills that I teach in this class should be taught through hands-on experiences . So I’ve pretty much always taught that way. The difference this semester is that I will get back to lecturing a bit more and to have more discussions. I know I can do it this semester because the students learned what they were supposed to learn in the previous semester. The students this semester are not slackers. They want to learn because they have a purpose. That encourages me to do all I can to ensure that I facilitate a great learning experience for them. I’m pretty excited.

I remember feeling left out because I wasn’t allowed in for a few days. It seemed like a very long time but looking back I guess it wasn’t too bad. The wait was worth it. I found Google+ to run much faster than Facebook and it was much less annoying. What did frustrate me was that most of my friends did not have access. Even when I sent them an invite, they were denied access. Well worry no more because Google+ is open and now anyone can join. If you have a Google account, you should go to http://plus.google.com and you play around.

It was a 2-day conference in Dallas held at SMU. On Friday, there we some really good social media sessions. Those sessions have inspired me to begin blogging again as well as using Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn more. I need to make more connections, both personal and professional.
