We’re lovin’ our late summer veggies and Levi is into a bit of veggie installation art.

Oregon is blessed with growing organic vegetables and we waste no time to enjoy. The Corvallis Riverfront Market is a happening place Saturday morning.

OSU President Ed Ray marches with Class of 2011 … nothing like starting the year with a positive vibe. Read the GT story, “New student walk follows same route used for OSU’s graduation march.”

Check out President Ray podcast from earlier this year…podcasting with Grassroots Learning Project.

Corvallis celebrated its 150th Birthday in concert with Oregon Business is Good! Tour 2007 joining in the celebration. Grassroots Learning Project added to the celebration by podcasting with Duncan Wyse president of Oregon Business Council.

Our podcaster is Aaron Selvig … a business major at OSU. Thanks Aaron!

Oregon 2007: The Business is Good! Tour

Tinkering with Box.net widget embedded in WordPress blog. Download, upload, and share media. Kind of Web 2.0/social mediaish thingie. Use the widget and listen to my podcast with Randy Huber owner/manager Corvallis’ Timberhill Athletic Club. As a member of the club and being a neat place in our community, I was curious about the club expansion. And I wanted to hear about Randy’s trip to Omaha and seeing OSU Beavers win a second consecutive world series title. The 15GB Box.net online storage comes in handy when traveling around and using various devices to connect to the Web. Also useful to connect with stored media via my Internet-enabled BlackBerry Pearl. When you hear ‘network is the computer‘ … our Box.net widget example is what this notion means … work and play on a computer is becoming less tethered around software on your PC … today for many of our computing services we launch a Web browser. Listen to my podcasts with Intel’s Rob Rueckert, Scott Gatz at Yahoo!, and Gary Flake at Live Labs for more on the topic.

Please let me know if you have any issues in listening to the podcast or downloading the files via the widget. Thanks for your help if you have a minute to spare.

A wonderful summer evening in Corvallis … enjoying our garden tomatoes (we’re canning for winter sauces ) and a lot of watering underway. Levi and Brock are building robots with Levi’s LEGO MINDSTORMS. Levi (our son) likes building robots (interests include marine biology, writing, painting, gaming) and looking forward to LEGO robotics club this fall.

You can hear Levi and Brock podcast with OSU’s world-renowned whale researcher Bruce Mate here.
