OK, I tried to kick the Feedburner habit once before and I fell back into it for no good reason. This time I mean it. I have killed my Feedburner subscription because (a) it keeps breaking and (b) I don’t really care about the statistics it gives me anyway. The RSS feed for e-Literate is […]
More About the Interview Videos
I have gotten some good feedback and done some thinking regarding how to improve my interviews. I’m a bit torn, though. People seem to want shorter interviews, but I really like the long form. I hear lots of five- and ten-minute interviews, and I rarely get much of value out of them. At the same […]

Instructure Goes Open Source
