The GIS Forum is the result of a twitter coversation from a month ago. Today it is a well designed site that has the promise to be an exceptional resource for the geospatial community. The masterminds of behind the site have created a site that combines a traditional forum with a blog roll and wiki.
Learn-gasm’s 100 Best Blogs for Earth Science Scholars
We recently got an email from Kelly at Learn-gasm about the recent article from Alisa Miller on their choices for 100 Best Blogs for Earth Science Scholars, and we made the list! The 100 blogs on the list cover a wide range of content, from Geology, Meteorology, and Climate Science to Geography. My favorites are
GIS Pathway, a learning solutions blog
I cam across this blog/site today that seems like an interesting tool for those who are new to ArcGIS and a nice reference for those more familiar. GIS Pathway.com is a site that offers tips on using ArcGIS (Desktop only so far). It is maintained by a student named Timothy at Central Piedmont Community College
Survey – The Use of New Media in Education
We are finishing up a paper on the use of New Media in Geography education, but I wanted to get an idea of how others are taking advantage of the pieces of the puzzle to give it a broader perspective. If you are an educator, whether academic, professional, or informal, I would greatly appreciate it
Plaidcast up and kicking for the new semester
For those of you interested in modern Cultural/Political Geography goings on I would like to remind you of a podcast I pointed out last Spring…The Plaid Avenger Plaidcast.

GISCafe ads video coverage at conferences
Another major GIS/geospatial pub/site has joined (kind of) the New Media ranks. GISCafe created a series of 16 videos at the ASPRS conference. Much like our interviews they shoot the fish in the barrel by hitting up vendors in the exhibitor area talking to company reps from GeoEye, Intergraph, 3001, and others. The upside is
Plaid Avenger Plaidcast
While trying to find folks to follow on Twitter I ran across the Plaid Avenger Plaidcast. The Plaid Avenger Plaidcast is a video series that highlights the thoughts of the Plaid Avenger on current global issues. These cultural geography hot topics are presented in a way that makes me think of a mix between John
Groundspeak Forums – talking geocaching
In my recent stumbles around the web I came across an extensive set of forums on geocaching over at the Groundspeak Forums. On the site (which is related to geocaching.com) there are plenty of topics to choose from including geocaching groups from several countries, geocaching adventures, GPS in education and even an online GPS garage
Wow…645 posts behind
So I just spent the last hour or so flying through the 645 posts from the geoblogs that I haven’t had a chance to read over the last month (being tech support’s assitant in a brand new building eats up your time). When you read blogs regularly it seems like things are kind of shuffling
Vector1 Media: Sustainability and geospatial
As those of you who have listened to AVSP Episode 112 have already heard, Matt Ball and Jeff Thurston have started Vector1 Media a new magazine that will look at the confluence of Sustainable Development and spatial technologies. I am sure you recognize the names as long time geospatial media creators online and editors of
