Glogster

You might have noticed the new little graphic on the side of the blog making fun of "Twilight."  Well, if you aren't familiar with it, it's from a site called Glogster.  This week I'm taking an institute with the Plymouth Writing Project on Writing Education and Multimedia, so this site was a place that I thought of for a unit plan I'm writing up for the Fall term as a final project for a unit.  I love it because I can post videos from other sites or upload my own, put sound on there, pictures, etc.

The little graphic on the side was just an example.  I may start using this site to post podcasts now that I have a decent microphone hooked up.  So watch the evolving space for details.

The Now Infamous NEA Phone Call

They posted the audio from the phone call that Big Hollywood blogger Patrick Courrielche participated in along with the transcript. I don't know what they were waiting for posting this, but it's at a time where Big Government is getting a lot of attention for the ACORN videos, so I think with the website getting a lot of attention this is actually probably the best time to release it.

This is potentially illegal, I should point out. No government agency should be used for a polotical agenda.

Listen to the whole audio.
