If you’ve found your way here from the USG computing conference, you’ll probably be looking for the facebook or twitter resources

I am still behind on getting folks majors changed to psychology (I have also been lax on the minors).
It is my intention to devote time every Friday morning to this task. You are more than welcome to schedule an appointment with me.

Chili Cookoff for Cancer — Relay 4 life
April 9, 2008
I totally need to leave town tomorrow for a conference and I’m making chili for the annual cookoff.
Can anyone help cure cancer by serving my chili up. Of course, there’s always a pirate theme and you’ll get to talk smack about the chili Dr. Lloyd an Dr. Smith serve up.
I’ll have everything ready for you… just look pretty and lick your fingers and go “yummy” put your vote in the skull.

Facebook resources for the faculty (and staff too).
September 22, 2007
So I’m leading a workshop at the fall faculty retreat today on using facebook. If the wi-fi will work up here in the woods, we’ll be fine. There really does seem to be a shortage of tutorial material for facebook. However, with its dynamic/mashup capabilities & continual improvements I can see how you could spend a lot of time working on a guide that would soon be obsolete. I’m going to list some resources below, feel free to share what you find as comments. I actually find the absurd / joking / humor sites to be the most informative… you should revisit them when you’ve gained some experience.
- Newbie’s Guide to Facebook
- 7 Things You Should Know About… Facebook II via Educause
- Social Networking: A beginner’s Guide to Facebook
- Facebook Tutorial from Diversity College
Apps:
Jokes (that also inform):
- The Unofficial and Smartass Guide to Using Facebook
- Facebook Etiquette (a college humor classic)
- Steve Speaks about Stalking
- and finally the Facebook songs doesn’t say it all, but it says a lot…
