		<title>Thinking Bigger - like Gerald Rogers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my friends, Kyle Matthews, recently pointed me in the direction of one of Seth Godin&#8217;s blog entries where he talked about Thinking Bigger.
I have just been in Florida for the last 4 days, where I saw how powerful this principle is. My brother, Gerald Rogers, had an idea about two months ago to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Announcing the EDULINK Consortium of African and European Universities for ICT4D: &#8230;And discussing ways in which Africa is already rich (and can give aid to the world)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am back in Finland again.
(Have I ever mention how much I like this place? - If you have never been to Finland before, you need to reconsider your life goals) 
Part of why I like the University of Joensuu is because of their strong international programs, and in particular their connection to Africa.
I recently [...]]]></description>

		<title>Web Analytics in Online Instructional Design and Evaluation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several months ago, before I knew I was going to be directing the Edulink project,  I proposed an idea to Andy Gibbons, the chair of the Instructional Psychology and Technology department at BYU, to offer a course on the use and application of web analytics for designing and improving online learning environments, and he [...]]]></description>

		<title>The power of &#8220;this moment&#8221;: &#8230;and questioning how to deal with soul pain?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Several times in my life I&#8217;ve heard a saying that goes 
&#8220;The past is history; The future is a mystery. This moment is a gift &#8212; that&#8217;s why it is called the present.&#8221; 
To be honest, previously I just saw it as a clever little saying and then didn&#8217;t think much more about it. 
It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Joey Lundgreen – One of the funniest people that I know!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First of all, forget whatever you think you know about funny. OK, now remember it again.
That was just for practice.
Ok – now forget what you know about funny again, and then remember it again, but this time when you remember it, instead of the word “funny” think “Joey”.
For a while on the signature of my [...]]]></description>

		<title>Technology for Innovation and Education in Developing Countries (TEDC 2008)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At first it was way more work than I expected to organize a conference and workshop like TEDC - but in the end, it was a lot of fun to see it all come together and to have so much participation from local Ugandans and from the people from all around the world who attended.

		<title>Ethiopia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[More than I expected, Ethiopia is green, beautiful, chilly, and the food is great. Like Thai food, they use a lot of peppers and have a spicy taste. You eat with your hands and everyone eats off the same large plate.
Because there is a different calendar system here, it just became the millennium (year 2000). [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bribing the Police - a first time for everything</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m the kind of person who usually likes to barter with people in the markets. It was a totally unique experience for me a couple of days ago, however, when the person we were bartering with was a policeman – who was expecting us to settle the issue “as friends” so that my friend did [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mistakes in Giving Aid and Development - Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I liked coming across this sign on the main street in Kampala city-center (click on it to see the full image). Maybe it is symbolic of what happens to people when they come to Uganda.
Well, in reference to my last blog entry, I knew I could do better if I had more time. So I [...]]]></description>
