Google may launch more than one “fiber city” in America. This cyberinfrastructure project could will be a tipping point for a few lucky cities.

A small school’s BIG cost
Small schools (K12 and Colleges with less than 1,000 students) are accustomed like all of us to accessing email around the clock. We know email is habit forming at best and compulsive at worst. The new economy proves funding 24/7 in-house email services can be staggering as budgets are slashed. Many schools have embraced [...]

K12 Technology Plan: CIPA
K12 Teachers and Administrators have questions about some of the finer points regarding CIPA and their school district. It appears there is a misunderstanding: not all CIPA products are created equal and more importantly your District may actually have the wrong CIPA product installed.
From a technical point-of-view CIPA solutions range in flexibility like Tylenol: Extra [...]

YouTube, K12 web filtering & CIPA
I recently posted a tweet about my work with K12 school districts regarding web content filtering issues with YouTube and was very happy to receive a couple of DMs from Angela Maiers and Elizabeth Holmes, two education professionals who I consider to be leaders in knowledge sharing and teaching experiences they share on Twitter.

The internet is dead. Long live the internet!
The 2008 Fall Internet2 member meeting last week in New Orleans proved that Big Science is here and I’m not sure the world is prepared to handle LHC’s generated data. The session included an HD video conference to the Large Hadron Collider.
Session Overview:

What is Internet2 ?
I met Dr. Brian Shepard, Assistant Professor of Pedagogical Technology at the USC Thornton School of Music at the 2007 Internet2 meeting in Chicago and thought his clip at YouTube really explains Internet2 more elegantly than Fox News. But for some reason USC will not permit this YouTube video to be embedded into blogs. So [...]

Internet2: 200 Gigabit backbone by 2014
The demand for bandwidth usage has been a funny issue of late. Comcast, TimeWarner and AT&T have announced new bandwidth taxing to consumers while on the research side Internet2 and the Department of Energy’s ESnet are planning to upgrade their network to support 200GB/s by 2014.
