The daily habit is on for a two month streak! Picking up in the January pace of batting 1000 for the DS106 Daily Create and my Daily Flickr Photo habit, by the 59th day of the year being 59/59 in both.

A useful baseline for …
Most likely I mangled my attempt at wordplay in that title. I’m writing again about my belief/obsession with small acts of daily creativity.
I have no real research, no data to back my hypothesis, but I will make up something that applying Curly’s Law to doing something small, new, micro …
Even better than a football blitz.
Photoblitz is an activity where you take photos of seven things within 20 minutes. This was my list of seven items:
Smooth, rough, dirty, or wrinkled. Make a photo of hands that tell a story. They’re all around. Make a photograph of a wheel…
Today I was tasked with reading three different articles involved with copyright. Thankfully all of my chosen articles talked about a different aspect of copyright. I read an article that covered Betamax recordings being considered legal, a photographer suing Getty Images, and the consideration of a tweet being copyright protected. …
I took a little bit longer on this unit for Digital Storytelling than I have the others. I want to say it was that I was not entirely wanting to do all the extra assignments but in reality, I was neglecting my knitting projects and I had too much fun …

Today we’re happy to introduce Photos, an image-centric theme with a clean layout and a design that showcases your favorite snapshots.
When we designed Photos, we put extra care into making it look and feel great on mobile devices. But that’s only one of the theme’s highlights — here …
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
This still frame form the move has chosen to show the moment that Indiana Jones is about to attack someone, in the foreground, while running from the people in the background. The selection of the keeping the enemy group in the back and …
When I was in the early years of high school my dear job was to be a photographer. Both my parents loved it and had gotten me a camera for my seventh birthday! I enjoyed landscape photography but I also loved taking candid phots of others while they were laughing …
As many site creators know, it’s daunting to find images to represent the message you’re trying to put out into the world — especially if you don’t have the equipment or time to make your own.
At WordPress.com, we’re constantly striving to make it as easy as possible to create …
I am reading Susan Sontag’s seminal book On Photography from 1977. It’s interesting reading the book in an age where the act of photographing the world has exploded beyond what Sontag could have imagined – even though her critique of everyday photography takes the mass proliferation of the acquired image …
Walk cards with proposition statements and visual trigger
More walking, talking and Twalking (just about)I co-led a Twalk today on the subject of visual literacies as part of Sheffield Hallam University’s Learning & Teaching Conference with my colleague Helen Rodger. It was billed simply as a learning walk and …
The diagnosis is likely on the spectrum of an obsession.
In the buildup to the first open version of the open digital storytelling course, the one, the only, DS106, I first saw a sign with a 106 on it.
I noticed it.
It was so long ago that what …
