Blogs and Wikis
On a different note, I recently submitted a proposal for a book on wikis to Jossey-Bass and it has been accepted. I will probably be contacting everyone sometime next week with permission slips for your wiki projects this semester. I hope to use the FAQ and at least one of the group projects for some of the examples that will be in the book. (btw-I will also post this as an announcement in WesternOnline.)

Looking through your blogs
On a side note: the new cd is now available at Borders in Davenport. You can find it in the independent artist bin under the name GEMnEYE. The new one is called "Legacy". The first one is also available (called "The Covenant"). I think the difference in sound quality between the two is really noticable as I learn to figure out how the software works.

Memories of Heidelberg
Well I am back from the trip. The conference was excellent and Heidelberg a memorable place to visit. The ISPI Europe conference was a great experience, and my presentation (on wikis) was well received.
As you may recall, I was born in Heidelberg. I was only 1 or 2 when we moved back to the states. I made my first visit back in 1996, and wrote a song about it. The song is called Old Town, and it's on the new cd. I am going to try to upload an mp3 if anyone is interested. Music and lyrics by me. I play the instruments (virtually, of course) and sing backup. My good friend from 35+ years is singing lead.
A second called Home also available here. There are twelve tracks in all. Comments welcome.
The songs should open in a new window. Or you can just right-click and download the files. Old Town rocks, and Home is mellower.
