How to Build a Website Watch me teach my nephew Practical Programming. 1. What is a website made of? (Practical Programming) March 15, 2016 In this tutorial, we will start very simple and look at the basic building blocks of a website. This is the perfect starting place if you’ve never tried building websites before.…
I was fortunate to be asked by School Video News to write an article telling the story of how our peer-to-peer teaching community, Open Source High, came to be. The article can be found HERE.
We have arrived at our final installment of the peer-to-peer revolution. I just started my blog a few months ago and wasn’t really sure what I’d end up writing about. As a result of my passion for promoting peer-to-peer platforms to education and mental health, I decided to explore other aspects of peer-to-peer exchange that…
Here is a quick addendum to my post last week on peer-to-peer education. While I went up to 4,000 words, I think I missed some meat. This blog is basically a brain drain. While it is certainly meant to be read, it is also an exercise for me to get my thoughts down, hear feedback…
We’ve finally arrived at part 7 of my 8 part series on the Peer-to-Peer Revolution where I will be talking about how education is being changed by the peer-to-peer system. As you may be aware, this is a space that I am fairly passionate about. And many other people are too. From my observation there…
Welcome back! It’s hard to believe we’re already at week 6 of my 8 part series on the peer-to-peer revolution. Mainly, it’s hard for me to believe I’ve stayed on one topic for 6 weeks straight. I’m a bit of a scatter brain as is relevant by the 2,000+ word articles I’ve been writing. To…
“Peer to Peer, Peer to Peer, Peer to Peer,” chants the crowd of revolutionaries as they throw rocks and empty bottles at the ivory towers… that would be a pretty cool intro to a news article. Sorry to disappoint you, but it’s fiction. While many people I’ve spoken to have warned me that you can’t…
I’ll admit, when I started covering all these aspects of the peer-to-peer revolution, I was pretty much winging it. I am delightfully surprised find myself churning out 2,000 words a week. I’ve been told your average reader has an attention span of 300 words per web page…. Yikes. It seems like every week someone tells…
In case you haven’t been following along (where have you been?!), this is part 3 of my 8 part series discussing how peer-to-peer transactions are shaping the way we use and value housing, transportation, energy, finance, entertainment, media, mental health, and education. Today, I’ll be writing about energy. While there are many different forms…
This is part two of my eight part series titled “The Peer-to-peer revolution.” Over the course of an eight week period I will be sharing my thoughts on how peer-to-peer transactions are reshaping the world we live in. And I don’t use the term revolution simply for drama. OK, partly for drama. But I call…
