I turned 26 two days ago and I received quite a number of birthday well-wishes. This is a quantitative breakdown of the greetings – and the replies I gave. It’s mostly real, but it’s mostly tongue-in-cheek too. Enjoy

Sometimes, all a revolution needs is a bit of collaborative Facebook-ing… even if said revolution occurred two hundred years in the past! (via)

Look toward Tennyson.

On a more serious note, I’m going to have to sincerely apologise to all the students who’ve added me on Facebook as I’ve had to ignore your requests.

It’s not something I normally do, but until I figure out what’s my comfort level with students stepping into what is a private space to me, I’ll have to impose a hard and fast rule: no student adds to my Facebook account under any condition whatsoever.

But don’t be sad – I still consider you my friend in real life okay… Just that you have to call me Sir. Hohoho!

Just to share with everyone my most recent discovery: Shared Items Post by Google Tutor. I’ve been looking – or to be more accurate, thinking about looking – for something like this for some time, and have finally found it.

It fits my needs because I read a lot of stuff using Google Reader, and I like to share what I read with people, but find the whole copying and pasting of links very laycheh. So far, have only been able to port my ‘reading lists’ into my Facebook feeds, but haven’t been successful in automatically porting it into my blog feed – until now.

Hope you enjoy reading my shared items, or if you blog and use Google Reader too and have been looking for something like this, hope this has been a useful discovery for you too!
