This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

We’ve been using 17th century technology to teach digital age kids and we wonder why they’re not learning anything. They’re bored to tears. Sadly you need the flash and glare to get their attention.

Duffy is right. Teaching has to keep up with the times. I can do more with my smart phone than I ever really dreamed possible. I won’t be going back to a neutered “feature phone”. I can buy a cell phone now that has a better digital camera in it than the stand-alone digital camera I own. My Pre didn’t have video capabilities until Palm sent a software update. Now, it does. With technology moving so fast, and teens and young adults on the cutting edge, teaching must keep up.
