I'm keeping up with my picture a day activity and posting them to Flickr and the 2009/365 pool. Last night I took a walk up to Mt. Tabor Park, which is just a few blocks from my home. It is a great spot for walking, biking and just hanging out. Below is my 365 picture for yesterday.

Today in our technology lab class, 4th and 5th grade students used Animation-ish to create short animations about Dr. King or the Inauguration of Barack Obama. Below is a slide show of some of that work in progress.
Spent some time poking around with the new Google Maps Transit layer. You can now get transit information for 50 cities around the world, including Portland. In the case of Portland, the information is not based on the scheduled time, but rather the estimated time based on GPS tracking of the bus or train in relation to the stop you are inquiring about.
