Well done! Several people correctly identified the location for Round 3 of “Where was I?”.
Ok, this has been a difficult one, so for the last post I will provide a couple more clues.
Ok, here is the next clue for the most recent installment of Where Was I?
Guesses so far:
I don’t think I will actually read tweets — too much to keep track of already — but I may try to post more often on Twitter than on this blog (plus, you also get links to blog posts). BUT I still want to make it to 1,000 subscribers to the feed for this blog this year, so don’t switch just to the Twitter list! This will be a hard one (I think), but maybe someone out there has been here. This time, you can just enter your guess directly in the poll.
In case you missed it, here is what will surely be widely considered one of the major highlights of the opening ceremony of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games in Vancouver. Until someone posts a high-quality video of the ceremony itself, enjoy this version. Happy Darwin Day, everyone! Just a reminder that you can still get Evolver Zone gear at the EZ Store… Valentine’s Day is coming up (so they tell me), and two of the most popular science cartoons have produced appropriate comics:
Or, perhaps you prefer to use the greatest Valentine ever made:
The David Suzuki Foundation. Yep, the environmentalist organization which I’m sure has done many great things sends me regular junk mail asking for money. Why? Because a couple of years ago, my evolution class came up with a t-shirt and the students bought it, with the money going to charity. The students chose the David Suzuki Foundation as one of the charities, and I made the donation. Ever since then, they have been bombarding my mailbox with requests for more money. The irony is two-fold here. One, this is an environmental foundation that has probably killed several trees just bugging me, and two, because of the non-stop paper junk mail I won’t be giving them money again. |

Well, the Twitter vortex has got me. I am thinking of using it for some educational purposes after a recent teaching tech workshop, so I am going to see whether I like it. If you are so inclined, you can follow
