Oh, I follow you now. I thought you meant photochopping your faces into the image. Sorry 'bout that. I guess that same theory applies though with befunky.com. Let us know what you come up with!

Wally replied to Holli Conley's discussion 'Photoshop Question'
Depends on how in depth you wanna go. Plenty of tutorials out there, but honestly, in my experience, if you're not trying to caricature someone, simply cartooning them is a fairly laborious process. Now if you just want something simple, Befunky.c...

I was on a similar project back in 2005 that never came into fruition. They've done a pretty good job with it - although I have no idea how many prospective students are actually looking at it. http://www.admissions.umich.edu/vmerse/

Wally replied to Brad Dressler's discussion 'Future Meeting Topic Ideas'
I think that's a great idea Brad. Even though I've explored a bit, it'd be great to learn about all the options we have here and to hopefully get a little more activity going on the site.

Sounds good. Thanks!

Wally replied to Brad Dressler's discussion 'Future Meeting Topic Ideas'
Knowing if particular conferences are any good is always nice, but I'm not sure if it's necessary for a meeting, or if it could just be covered in the "Professional Development" thread. Could be interesting though. I got some possible topic ideas...

Great Twitter presentation from Evan Williams. I still have no love of Twitter for just following people, but the potential is still very cool. http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/473

I heard some folks before the main discussion talking about Second Life and getting involved with that. I previously worked for a University that explored purchasing some Second Life property, what was then and I assume now, dubbed an "Education I...

Epic Marketing Fail

Ever wonder about what things you should avoid when trying to market your product - look no further than Monopoly City Streets. MCS is quite possibly one of the most ingenious marketing strategies I've ever seen, and it has become the most epic failure I know of as well.

The idea of playing Monopoly on real streets using Google Maps generated over 17 million hits in the first day. The interwebs were overrun with rabid Monopoly players ready to snatch up their favorite streets. I myself bought u… Continue

Google Earth

One of the projects I have been working on for the Office of Admissions and Records is representing our various groups (applicants, different admissions decisions, prospects) in Google Earth for a more visual interpretation of our data.
