Everyone on the plane survived. Stunning skills!]]> 2019-01-28 02:43:00 UTC https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/324766763 https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325058190 I was in the final year of my undergrad when Facebook made its way to Canada. The impact of social media on how humans interact with each other and with A.I. in just over 10 years is truly mindblowing.]]> 2019-01-28 17:51:09 UTC https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325058190 https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325064151 I had to live in my in-laws basement for 6 months while our new construction home was being completed.

Much like Jaclyn's moment re: Facebook, this had a big impact, not only in how we hail a cab and order pizza, but on our entire digital landscape, personal communication, labour practices and  norms. Where would we be without the super computer in our pocket?]]> 2019-01-28 20:27:33 UTC https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325144550 https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325154453 I got 'screeched in' on my last visit to Newfoundland - a bizarre and loveable pastime to help 'far-aways' become honorary Newfoundlanders. It involves lots of laughs, a shot of local rum and kissing a cod (only the brave pucker up to a real fish)! ]]> 2019-01-28 20:54:53 UTC https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325154453 https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325180419 On January 20th, 2009 the first African American man would become president of the United States of America. It would change the world forever.

I didn't know anyone here and it was meant to only last 2 years - but since then I've found a job I enjoy and good friends so it looks like I'll be sticking around.]]> 2019-01-29 01:33:34 UTC https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325211360 https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325470954 Not to be repetitive, but I think the development and subsequent popularity of the iPad. I remember discussing the iPad in a design course, where the majority of students thought it was a silly gimmick--a giant iPhone and who would want that!? Now, we have even more gigantic iPads that offer different functionality and opportunities. Interesting how ubiquitous technology has become.]]> 2019-01-29 16:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325470954 https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325477069 April 19, 2010 - my daughter was born

I think this is an incredibly significant shift, and I worry about what it means for the natural environment.]]> 2019-01-29 22:32:45 UTC https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325643767 https://padlet.com/set_admin2/GCID_DipTELD_2019_Padlet_1/wish/325647217 June 30, 2017 we took possession of a small property on Gabriola, and June 30, 2018 I was selling microgreens and vegetables at the Gabriola Farmer's Market.
