New Web 2.0 Presentation

It's all about the API (Application Program Interface), a bit of code that allows one on-line application to talk to another. Combine the right ones and you create something totally new and uniquely powerful. Many of the most popular Web 2.0 technologies feature an API that allows users like you and me to combine them with others to make our very own applications. For example, take a little Google Maps and mash it up with a GPS client, and maybe a little instant messaging and Voila! You have an application that can track delivery drivers, travelers, or even kids on a school trip. You don't have to be a programmer to create a Mashup. Come learn about the best Mashups, how they're made, and how you can make your own.


Location: Indianapolis Junior Achievement 7435 North Keystone Avenue
Indianapolis, IN 46240


Registration time: 8:30-9:00
Presentation: 9:00-11:30
Closing: 11:30-12:00

So here's the secret. You can't. You knew that was coming, didn't you? But there are ways to push the complaint farther away from your site and out of your search results. The first thing I would do. Go after that customer, face to face, and see if you ...Read on

This past weekend, I was fortunate enough to speak to a group of the most enthusiastic members of Indiana's blogging community at Blog Indiana 2008 at IUPUI's amazing new Campus Center. My topic was "Between the Posts" (which I admittedly have plenty of experience with) and it centered on using ...Read on

How much do you really know about how the food you eat is produced?  If you're like most Americans, it'd be safe to assume not too much.  This weekend, I had the pleasure of speaking about digital and social media to the Young Farmers of the Indiana Farm Bureau as part of their annual ...Read on

I had been wrestling with how to write about the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market for over a month.  Just a written blog entry would pale in comparison to the experience I had.  Ideally, I thought a sharp video piece would do the trick.  One hitch: I only had photos.It was only ...Read on

One thing I have come to understand with technology and media is that everything new is nothing new at all; they're just new ways of looking at things.  How we communicate and connect today can be traced back to how people have always communicated and connected.  Digital and social media ...Read on

With the speed at which digital media and social media are moving, most organizations don't have a digital strategy.  Understandably, they don't even have a budget that takes digital and social media into consideration.Because their budgets were created for yesterday, not today, there is a financial disconnect.  What I mean ...Read on

So the kids and I went to check out Eagle Creek Reservoir Beach on Sunday afternoon. I'm very proud of my oldest daughter. She has finally learned to swim (after this summer of swimming lessons). But she's very particular about her nose. She has to have nose plugs on or she ...Read on
