@Mark Sample – Yeah, I’ve thought of that too. What would be awesome is a straightfroward Zotero->Omeka export, since the beauty of Zotero is its ease in capturing web resource.
So as a hacking project, some kind […]

@tjowens – That’s my question as well, but I suppose it’s a way of displacing an answer to your implied question, What do we mean by “the ARG itself?” Is the ARG the experience of a community of players, or is it […]

It seems that idea number 2 could very easily lead to some examples of idea number 3. I like this concept, “barely games,” and it captures pretty well what’s game-like about most Alternate Reality Games (besides […]

You know how when you have an assignment for students to post regularly to a blog throughout the semester, there’s always a couple who wait until the last minute to post a bunch of comments to make it look like […]

zach whalen commented on the post, All Courseware Sucks, on the site THATCamp CHNM 2010 right now
This is something I’ve been thinking about — why does courseware suck. And you hit the nail on the head with the persistence of print and desktop metaphors.
At last year’s THATcamp, I talked about using Drupal […]

At the risk of bringing back too much yak, I’d be interested in some of the debates as well. I haven’t followed this very much, but are you referring to the move from XHTML 2.0 to HTML 5?

zach whalen commented on the post, Geolocation, Archives, and Emulators (not all at once), on the site THATCamp CHNM 2010 right now
Your first two points are in the ballpark of my original proposal, so I’ll try and build those bridges when I get around to posting mine, but you raise some really important questions about emulators that I’d love […]

I’m curious, is your idea to use things like Browse-Aloud as an accessibility compliance tester (i.e. you’ve built a website and you want to make sure it’s text-to-speech friendly), or would a text-speech thing be […]

zach whalen commented on the post, Applying open source methodology and economics to academia, on the site THATCamp CHNM 2010 right now
This parallel between open source and open publishing — I’m interested to explore it further, especially since I don’t find those familiar pushbacks all that convincing. At least for humanities publishing that […]

zach whalen commented on the post, Audiences and Arguments for Digital History, on the site THATCamp CHNM 2010 right now
I’d like to think more about the question of involving new media in the production of argumentation. The way Rob raises the question is similar to how I attempted to respond to a similar, broader question, raised […]

zach whalen commented on the post, Open Peer Review, on the site THATCamp CHNM 2010 right now
I’m quite interested in this topic, as I’m currently struggling with your step 1 (begging and pleading) for a project that is sort of similar to Planned Obsolescence.
I’m working to transform my dissertation into […]

zach whalen commented on the post, The Future of Interdisciplinary Digital Cultural Heritage Curriculum (oh yeah, and games as well), on the site THATCamp CHNM 2010 right now
So if discipline-specific epistemology constrains digital cultural heritage in a way that is better served by an interdisciplinary (or post-disciplinary) curriculum, are you implying that digital cultural heritage […]

zach whalen wrote a new post, Who is working with Drupal? (I am — here's why), on the site THATCamp CHNM 2009 right now
Well, I’m finally caught up in reading these blog entries, so I’m taking my turn to post about my proposal. I hope this isn’t too late to get some response and maybe interest in participation this weekend. In […]
