Once Again, The Fischbowl...

I read posts from August of 2006 on the Fischbowl blog. I believe that the video that we watched the first few weeks of school actually began as a powerpoint presentation for teachers at Arapahoe High School. The powerpoint was just updated to a video.

Karl Fisch, creator of the fischbowl blog, was asked to speak at a faculy meeting. He keeps the teachers and the school updated on technology upgrades. He did not want to just have another faculty meeting. He wanted to do something different to inform them about things, so he created a powerpoint. I watched the powerpoint and it had some information that was not in the video that we had to watch. Overall, it was pretty much the same message, though.

He uses his blog to spread his ideas and opinions, and information, in general. He has his powerpoint presentation posted to his blog for easy access. He has posted his updated video to this 2006 blog post also, even though the video was made in 2007.

After the presentation was shown initially, he answered questions/concerns regarding the powerpoint presentation on his blog. He also expounds upon things, clarifies, and explains why he made changes to some things. He tells some of his sources of information.

I like his blog. I think it is well done. I like how he writes like he is talking and it is laidback and comfortable. It is also well organized.
