I’m super excited to announce that my new segment on GRITtv with Laura Flanders has launched! I’ll be doing regular segments featuring all things tech: politics (like episode 1, here), life hacks, sanity checks, gadget giddiness, you name it. Have suggestions or hot tips? Send them to blog AT deannazandt.com!
I could go on and on about the month that I spent in Berlin, especially the week that I was traveling around with my mom — we had an absolute blast! Instead, tho, I’ll direct you over to my Flickr collection of trip photos, conveniently sectioned off for your browsing pleasure. Enjoy!
Hey y’all! I’m here at Personal Democracy Forum I’ve got a Nokia N95 (thanks, Micah!) and I’m gonna be running around all day talking to folks for GRITtv. Watch live!
It’s been a wild ride since I got back from Berlin, happily so– I’ve been knee deep in local activism (Union Square: Not For Sale), attending and speaking at conferences (Media Reform), seeing friends what seems like every night of the week (I love my tribe!) and working on those comics, as ever. I’m going to be posting my Berlin pics later today, but in the meantime, here’s some visual highlights from the last month:
I’m back on the ol’ Brooklyn couch, and it feels pretty good to be home. Not to say that I’m not already pining away for the sweet blossomed air and generous spirit of Berlin! Along those lines, check out my new project documenting some thoughts from the trip: http://chachawhereareyou.com/
Just a little note here to let yas know that I’m leaving for Berlin today. I’ll still be online and working during the typical EST workday times, but my US phone number will only accept voicemails (no SMS). I’ll have a German phone number and Skype for those in the know.
The rest of the time, I’ll be flaunting about doing Berlin-y things. A bit of travel with my mom is in store as well, yippie! Check back here and in the lifestream for updates and pics.
Just a quick note of announcement here (especially for you RSS people that never come to the site, haha): I’ve updated the design of dz.com to reflect a little more “practice what I preach.” Why yes, look at that fancy new sidebar, with my lifestream, where else you can find me online… oh, and is that a tag cloud? Yay. Tag clouds are just about my favorite thing in web 2.0. Also, ye RSS peeps: you’ll find now that there’s two feeds to choose from: one with just my blog posts (same ol’, same ol’), and one that will give you my lifestream (blog posts plus twitter, digg activity, what-have-you).
In addition to being a little bit more practical and up-to-date, this will also serve as some public documentation of my upcoming month in Berlin and other parts of Germany, so stay tuned for news and enjoy!
