10 Tips On What Not To Do

I decided to give you 10 tips on how not to administer a Turing test. A Turing test is a series of questions that are given to a computer to evaluate its intelligence.

Manifesto – A Review

Manifesto – A Review

The trees finally have some…

So it begins

I am old enough to remember when DVDs were new. I had a Walkman and a Discman. I remember the sound of dial up internet. I remember life before everyone had a cell phone. I am older than Google. I love the smell of old paper books. I love the feel of paper fresh and crisp or old and soft under my fingers. So here I am making a 1st blog for digital story telling. I am behind my peers…
