Unseasonably warm, teasing plants out before their time.
Lovely day!

Signs of the Season
The sidewalks are crowded and the coffeeshop patios are filled. The motorcyclists lean on their bikes and watch the walkers parading past.
The spot of red (against the cream-coloured house, in the leafless branches) is the first cardinal I’ve seen this season.

Winter Diminishes
Social Media Makes a Small World Smaller!
Two weird social media things have happened to me this morning. In Twitter, I have a new follower who, when I checked her or him out, was following only people with the name Joan, including several Spanish-speaking ones with distinctly masculine avatars. A strange way of selecting people to follow!
The other, and much more exciting one was when I was browsing my Facebook Status Updates and saw, forwarded from TweetDeck, my associate, Donna Papacosta’s recommendation of recap of a Podcamp Toronto presentation by a current student of mine.
Donna had presented to my class and she and Reina had run into each other at the Podcamp. Social Media makes a small world smaller!

Google’s Design Sense
I love Google's sense of design and current events! And am enjoying using Chrome, even though I use Firefox for certain things.
