My 15 minutes

Who knew blogging out loud could be so much fun?

24 July 2009 How I love the Interwebs

Thanks a million to Lynn of TurtleHead for organizing a fantastic night out last night at Blog Out Loud Ottawa, otherwise known as BOLO. (Or #BOLO, if you’re on Twitter.) I don’t know what I enjoyed more: seeing old friends, putting real live people together with their online personae, or finding a whole bunch of [...]

Welcome All in a Day listeners!

22 July 2009 My 15 minutes

If this is your first time here, hello! Pull up a chair and grab a coffee. Curious about project 365? It’s quite simple, really. Take a picture each day for a year. I post mine to Flickr and to this blog, but I have a friend who is doing her 365 on her own, just [...]

Tune in to my radio début!

21 July 2009 My 15 minutes

How cool is this? A couple of months ago, a producer from CBC radio sent me an e-mail and asked if I’d be interested in coming in to chat about my 365 project. At first, we talked about doing a show around my 100 day mark, but what with it coinciding with Barack Obama’s 100th [...]

Social Media for Mothers Seminar

6 May 2009 How I love the Interwebs

This is a neat idea I wish I’d thought of myself. An Ottawa company is offering Social Media for Mothers seminars, just in time for Mother’s Day. From the press release: This unique seminar will show moms how to use social tools like blogs, Twitter, social networks, YouTube and Flickr to share their experiences online [...]

Zed-versus-Zee, the first in a series of reruns

6 April 2009 Life, the Universe and Everything

Here’s another secret I’ve been keeping from you. (Two secrets in one month. Can you believe it?) I’ve been asked to guest-blog this week over at Canadian Family magazine’s Family Jewels blog. How cool is that? My first post should be up there later today – come on over and say hello! (Edited to add: [...]

Project 365: meta-pictures!

11 March 2009 My 15 minutes

As promised, here’s the picture that accompanied the article in yesterday’s G&M. Conveniently, also Day 50 of my Project 365! I had a much better week with the project this week. Some really fun shots and some neat opportunities. For Tristan’s birthday, we brought the kids bowling and I used the black-lighting to play with [...]

Hey, who’s that good-looking family on the cover of the Life section in today’s G&M?

10 March 2009 It IS all about me

Oh look, it’s us! A couple of weeks ago, a writer from the Globe and Mail got in touch with me to ask about “Gaming Moms”. We chatted for a bit, and told her that while I’m not exactly a gaming mom, I have grown quite fond of our Wii after some initial reservations about [...]

In which I trade my mother’s loyalty for a few inches of ink

25 November 2008 Baby days

Huh. Hard to figure out how to play this one. It’s not every day you get quoted in the Globe and Mail, after all. For an attention junkie like me, it doesn’t get much sweeter than that. When Fiona sent me an e-mail to ask if I’d mind being interviewed for a piece she was [...]
