NGCSU FALL COMMENCEMENT 2007
December 13, 2007
I have no idea why… but I am giving the fall commencement address at NGCSU.
It’s really hard to decide what to say so I fell back on what comes naturally. I’ve stolen remixed almost everything in my speech from the Internet (YouTube, websites devoted to commencements, site that collect quotes…etc.) and I’ve remixed them for me and my audience. I’ve tagged many of them on delicious with the tag, commencement.
I also created a website on my University space for this graduating class (and anyone else that needs it). It’s full of classic stuff to entertain and inspire. Check it out here. I hope to put a copy of my speech there too, It’s still in rough shape right now, as a Google document of course.
The speech will mostly be about collaboration, networking, and the future of communication. I’ve borrowed liberally from the educational technology blogs that I aggregate. Thanks! I hope to give everyone credit during the speech. I got a great lead on a futurist article in the Guardian from Derek’s Blog. I am greatly impressed and inspired by Demo Girl… I can’t get enough of what she has to share.
Mad references go out to Barry Vercoe, Maurice Lévy, Biz Stone, Peter Norvig, and the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
