Butt, Seriously: Get Checked, Give Back Raising some funds and awareness for Colorectal Cancer Canada.

This is the last week to get your 2024 charitable donations in, & it’s my birthday on March 1st, & March is Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Wanna know more? #SaveYourButt #ButtSeriously www.canadahelps.org/en/pages/sav...

PS, keep this question in mind when you’re looking at party platforms for the next provincial election.

Great to see so many Kitchener and Guelph folks on the 330 GO train. Where are we at with the 2-way-all-day-every-day conversation? Surely there’s a business case, and we have a shiny new unused platform here in the Royal City.

Also: trust in Wiarton Willie. #buycanadian

Looking to buy Canadian? Go to your local farmer’s market. Lots there to choose from.

I've been working on a proof of concept for some modules for college instructors, patching together H5P and Brightspace/D2L templates with the aim of providing a meaningful, tight, and cohesive experience. I'm pleased with the results so far. Whaddya think? www.youtube.com/shorts/WxIXV...

The party is also setting the entry fee for potential candidates at $350,000, sources said — a significant jump from the $75,000 fee set by the party for the previous leadership race.

When I grow up I want to be the PM. Can you lend me $350,000? 😮

Porto.

So, what’s new @h5p.bsky.social? I know you were purchased by D2L, & were curious how all this is going to play out. New features? Improvements? Tighter integrations? The people want to know.

Welcome, friends. We’ve been waiting for you! ;)

I’m super excited about the schedule and grateful for the work the staff, board, and volunteers have done to put this year’s festival together. I encourage you to check out a screening (or 5)! guelphfilmfestival.ca

#opened24 shout out to the organizers for helping me meet my stair climbing goals for the day.

It’s been so long that almost forgot…y’all pronounce it “ped-a-goh-gee” down here. ;) #opened24

What are you doing to resist? #opened24

Looking forward to #opened24 this coming week. Hoping we connect with others and extend our conversations through platforms like this one. (& no, I’m not on Twitter/X)

One of the highlights of my career has been the opportunity to collaborate with #D2L as they developed #Brightspace. As "User Number 1", it has been exciting to see the platform, company, and community mature.

The annual users conf, #D2LFusion starts today. Cheers! www.linkedin.com/posts/kylema...

you got this!

I just turned down a contract because the team wasn’t committed to accessibility, and they were determined to build resources in Storyline. “Because we like drag and drop” is not a good justification.

I've managed enterprise platforms for almost 25 years. Every time I need to change something in Zoom, I have no idea how to find what I need and make the changes. It's a rat's nest.
