OK, OK…it's been a long time. Life and laziness have beaten intention and resolve to keep me away from the blog keyboard with alarming regularity.
But it's now summer, better than that, it is those wonderful first weeks between June 15 and July 15 when there are not yet back to school sales in the paper, and we don't start counting down the days yet.
So now is the time to relaunch this blog with greater vigor, and in order to do that, I've created another mind-game to trick myself into writing on some sort of schedule (thanks to those fives of you who read this and participate vicariously in my mental self-manipulation gymnastics).
I'm not doing anything as ambitious as last year's 30 blogposts of summer (which was finished on Thanksgiving). However, beginning with coming week, I am committing to at least twice a week between now and September. If I do this, we should have about 20 new posts during the summer.
Another decision, I'm retiring two of my older blogs, TotechasJesusdid.com and Platformsandparadigms.com. Both of these were early experiments with the form, as I tried different approaches to sharing the word, but I haven't written in either for years (I can't write in this one). So I'm bringing old content into this blog and letting them fade away (I'll probably keep totechasjesusdid.com, because that will be the title of my book if it ever gets written…HA!).
So I invite you to join this next burst of thoughts on the world of technology in education in my schools and schools all over.
And, as always, I invite your comments.

Looking forward to your posts! Perhaps I’ll somehow get more than two posted to my own blog this summer. Fingers crossed…
You are going to motivate me to blog more as well although I am also working on finishing up another book. The hope is to have it out by CACE…but NCEA is more likely.
