For Micro Monday I’d recommend @robertbrook for his fascinating stream of photos. Robert Brook
“Always felt TeachMeet movement was about reimagining a world without keynotes and guest speakers. They’ve a place at the table but dominate professional learning dialogue to an unhealthy degree, I worry. Too often about platitudes and polemics than practice & messy imperfections”
@athole nails the feeling that TeachMeet started with. A move away from professional development being done to us to being done by us. It is clear teachers need help from experts, research and leaders from both inside and outside the classroom but TeachMeet was started to provide a different sort of space. It is worth trying to keep it that way.
This is the strip of code characters that appeared in the Shooting Code Across the Void photo next in this photostream. NB: I had difficulty uploading it, probably due to the aspect ratio (10000 x 300 pixels), it didn't "look like a valid photo". Tried resizing it, and it finally worked if I made it taller (10000 x 1000), but I didn't like the looks. However, when I used the "replace" function from the image page, flickr allowed me to upload my original long photo. Lesson learned: try all available methods until one works!

Apple’s forgotten software gem was a last breath for democratized computing. Can it be revived?

How to get Twitter back on song? #NoMoreRetweets | John Naughton | Opinion | The Guardian Mr Naughton should be on micro.blog
Let me answer that question for you: For MOST* of us, audience DOESN’T matter. Stop talking about it. Period. End of conversation.
👍 Audience Doesn’t Matter, I lost this link and was reminded by @mrkrndvs
his colleagues remember him arguing passionately in the 70s that it was absurd for scientists to be paid more than dustmen, because they had the inestimable privilege of loving their work

Today we’re unleashing Anchor 3.0, featuring a re-imagined mobile app built for effortless podcast creation
🔗 I’ve followed Anchor with interest and used if a wee bit in both of the earlier versions. But I don’t think I’ve the energy to dive back in this time. A pivot to far?
I do appreciated the post as it reminds me to get back to microcasting soon.
