Updated July 21, 2025
The purpose of **Virtually Connecting** is to enliven virtual participation in academic conferences, widening access to a fuller conference experience for those who cannot be physically present at conferences. We are a community of volunteers and it is always free to participate. Using emerging technologies, we connect onsite conference presenters and attendees with virtual participants in small groups. This allows virtual conference participants to meet and talk with conference presenters and attendees in what often feels like those great spontaneous hallway conversations, something not usually possible for a virtual experience. There is only room for 10 in each session but we record and, whenever possible, live stream, to allow additional virtual attendees to participate in the discussion by listening and asking questions via Twitter. We add value at all levels of the conference experience: **For Virtual Participants** You are our main focus. We exist to give you access where there was none before ā well at least not the way that we do it. It is always free for you to participate with us. If you have purchased a virtual pass to a conference that we are at thatās great, you can dive even deeper in our sessions; you will find that our sessions are much more informal and loose knit ā think the informal time at the conference during hallway or coffee breaks. If the conference is not offering a virtual option or if you cannot afford or otherwise obtain a virtual pass you will find that our sessions are a great way to get a feel for what is going on there. If there is a conference that you would like to attend, and you cannot, reach out to us. **For Those Onsite at the Conference** We add value to the onsite experience by bringing in diverse perspectives that cannot often make it to the conference. These can include unaffiliated scholars, graduate students, adjuncts, moms of young kids, those with health issues that prevent travel, and people from countries with emerging economies or countries far away from where most academic conferences are held. These voices broaden the collective conversation that is happening at the conference creating a more heterogeneous voice influencing those that are in attendance. If you are planning to attend or present at an academic conference and would like to connect with virtual participants contact us. **For Conference Organizers** We aim for our presence at your conference to broaden and enliven the experience for all participants. Our presence will help you to create a larger mark in the virtual space (think social media, networks, blogs, and an international presence) whether or not you are offering other virtual options. The value we bring to participants, attendees, and presenters, both onsite and in the virtual world, will help you to extend the reach of your mission and purpose. If you are holding a conference and you would like to partner with us please let us know. It is our hope that through our work people will not only make new connections, but they will also make weak connections stronger. Currently our focus is on Educational Technology conferences because those are the ones we attend/follow, and they are also ones that often have some virtual participation option via streaming sessions (free or paid), active Twitter usage, or make presentation material openly available in some way. Please note that **_we consider ourselves to be free agents ā_** _While we welcome conference partnership (e.g. conferences organizers that mention us in sessions, give us space onsite with good wifi or space on their website or blog, or offer us free/reduced registration) we think of ourselves as guerilla connectors and we feel we are free to meet individuals at conferences without needing organizer permission. Unless otherwise noted, we are not officially affiliated with any of the organizations and/or conferences in which we participate._ **For more information see:** * Beyond Twitter: Virtually Connecting at Conferences ā ProfHacker Chronicle of Higher Education * Bali, M., Caines, A., DeWaard, H., & Hogue, R.

š¶ From when Mosaic took over Gopher. š¢ Sr. Director of Engineering @ Cloudflare š¹ļø Slightly addicted to retrocomputing Assembling a Retro Chip Tester Pro ---------------------------------- Jul 19, 2025 Iāve been considering adding a chip tester to my lab for some time now, but Iāve never quite taken the plunge. BackBit, whom I know well because I have a BackBit Pro cartridge that I use to load software onto my 8-bit computers, has theĀ Chip Tester Pro V2. I was close to buying one, but I found it somewhat expensive, and importing it from the US didnāt help, so I waited.ā¦ Read more ā¶ ZX Spectrum+ Toastrack Part 2 ----------------------------- Jul 6, 2025 This is a quick update from my Restoring a ZX Spectrum+ Toastrack blog. RGB is not analog, we need more colors First, I found that the 6-way IDC analog RGB extender that I used with the RGB2HDMI adapter wasnāt detecting all the colors. Specifically I wasnāt seeing the half bright variant of the 3-bit 8 color palette. 6-way IDC analog RGB extender As you can see I only have 8 colors.ā¦ Read more ā¶ Restoring a ZX Spectrum+ Toastrack ---------------------------------- Jun 28, 2025 I talk a lot about Commodore machines in this blog; they left a bigger dent in me growing up, but like most kids of my generation living in Portugal in the 80s, the first computers I played with were actually Sinclairsāfirst my friendās ZX81 and then a ZX Spectrum 48K that my parents offered me. I have many memories of playing games like the Horace series, Manic Miner, Jetpac, or Chuckie Egg on my Spectrum.ā¦ Read more ā¶ Changing the A1000 fan ---------------------- Mar 30, 2025 Iām on a roll upgrading the Amiga 1000. This time, I replaced the PSU fan. The Amiga 1000 PSU uses an ETRI Model 126LH metallic fan that is AC-powered 220/110V. These fans are pretty good, silent, reliable, and used in computers and industrial-grade equipment. However, they all suffer from a common problem: after long years of continuous use, the fan bearing starts developing an annoying grinding noise due to a lack of lubrication.ā¦ Read more ā¶ RGB2HDMI for the Amiga 1000 --------------------------- Mar 10, 2025 On my last post āthe first perfect computerā I mentioned that I wasnāt done with the A1000. I finally upgraded it with an internal RGB2HDMI adapter. For those unfamiliar with RGB2HDMI, itās a brilliant and affordable open-source project that converts ādigitalā RGB video signals from vintage computers into crystal clear HDMI video with very low latency. At its core, thereās a combination of a RaspberryPi Zero running bare-metal code and a CPLD (complex programmable logic device) programmed to do level shifting and pixel sampling on the TTL RGB outputs from a vintage computer and feed the processed data into the Piās GPIO pins.ā¦ Read more ā¶ The first perfect computer -------------------------- Jan 26, 2025 This is a story about restoring and upgrading a Commodore Amiga 1000, the first model of the Amiga series. Many of you might be familiar with the popular Amiga 500 or later models, but the Commodore Amiga 1000 was actually the first model of the Amiga series produced. I consider the A1000 a significant piece of home computing history. Arguably one of the most important machines of the 16-bit revolution period, considered by many to be the first multimedia computer, it marked the beginning of Commodoreās last cycle, after the huge success of the C64, in the history of personal computing.ā¦ Read more ā¶ Running CP/M on the C128 ------------------------ Mar 3, 2024 The CP/M, short for Control Program/Monitor, was one of the first operating systems of the personal computer revolution. It was launched in 1974, and it celebrates 50 years this year. It was ported and made available for many 8-bit machines with different CPUs and was related to running productivity software. If you ever used CP/M, then, well, I hate to say it, but youāre old. I had a brief encounter with CP/M when I was 14 or 15 years old; I canāt remember exactly.ā¦ Read more ā¶ My finest C64/128 setup so far ------------------------------ Feb 25, 2024 The C128 is a fascinating and unusual machine. It was the last 8-bit Commodore machine before the Amiga and co-existed with the C64 series for a while. They sold ~8 million units worldwide (vs ~17 million C64). I never owned one, but I fondly remember playing with one at my friendās place and seeing them in computer shops. Itās fully 99.8% backward compatible with its predecessor in C64 mode, but in native C128 mode it takes advantage of its 128 KB RAM, higher clocked 2 MHz 6510 variant (the 8502), and the improved VIC-IIe graphics chip.ā¦ Read more ā¶ InĆ©rcia 2023 ------------ Dec 3, 2023 Filipe Cruz (aka psenough) invited me to InĆ©rcia 2023, a local Demoscene event organized by the AssociaĆ§Ć£o InĆ©rcia that took place in the infamous IncrĆvel Almadense. Iāve done my fair share of bouncing ball assembly demos in the 80s and others more recently, but I donāt qualify as a demoscener, not even by the lowest standards. Still, I promptly accepted the invitation. I participated in a panel that discussed the struggles and strategies of organizing community events.ā¦ Read more ā¶ Hacking a cheap video upscaler ------------------------------ Oct 12, 2023 The ingenuity of combining open-source and open hardware in retro computing is a force of creativity and marvel these days. One of the conundrums with running old computers nowadays is how you display video.

The Simpsons premiered on TV the same day I was born on April 19, 1987. I was born to Donna and Jerry Harter in Salem, Indiana, just northwest of Louisville, Kentucky. I have a job now that didnāt exist when I was growing up. I never started worked on the Internet until 6th grade, and I didnāt have access at home until dial-up became affordable around the time I was in 8th grade. Originally, I wanted to be a āscientistā, then an āartistā, then I narrowed it down to a cartoonist, then a docgor, and then somewhere around the age of 15 it hit me that I was going to be a web designer. With the exception of being a doctor, one can see how it all sorta fits together. Iāve been making websites for over 15 years now. I did my first one for a client when I was 15, and I still maintain that site today (albeit, not the original). Come my Junior year of high school I was hired at the Washington County Historical Society where I worked as a researcher, genealogist, tour guide, ātech kidā, and web designer. I left that job in July 2005, just two months after I graduated, to come to Indianapolis. Here I got a job in 2006 as an intern at the Indiana Supreme Court on their web team. A year after that I was hired as a full-time employee at the age of 18. I was promoted every year up to Senior Web Developer, and then I quit in November 2009 to pursue my own independent business. I have taught high school and university-level classes for Indiana University, Ben Davis University, and Vincennes University. My friend Tony and I have co-hosted web design conferences, too. Iām also an avid cyclist, having decided in December of 2011 that Iād sell my car and get around town only by bike. Since then, Iāve pedaled over 68,000 miles and counting. In December 2012, I rented out my home in Indianapolis, cleared out many of my belongings, and moved to New Haven, Connecticut, where I worked on a project for a year before returning to Indy. Since then Iāve grown and sold my web agency and now focus exclusively on narrative nonfiction writing, brand journalism, copywriting, and search optimization for webpages. Justinās professional bio boilerplate ------------------------------------- Justin Harter is awake and moving by 5:30 AM seven days a week. By 7 AM heās writing some of the most compelling stories and advertising for places like Indiana University, game studios, and engineering firms. An entrepreneur, writer, educator, and athlete, Justin originally started a successful web development business before he was old enough to drive. By 21, he was managing the Indiana Supreme Courtās complex website. By 33 he had grown and sold his web design agency. He has helped shape young minds at Vincennes and Indiana Universities and has channeled Indianaās tech community, first through the successful RefreshIndy social organization, and later through the three-time re:build web conference. Past colleagues have described Justin as, āAn excellent teacher and writerā, āA creative dynamo that helps our business be betterā, and possess what his husband calls, āA force somersaulting him out of bed at very early hoursā and āa weird knack for learning about obscure things.ā Today from his home in Indianapolis, Justin helps people like you optimize websites with brand journalism, search optimization and increased traffic, and copywriting. Heās on a mission to become one of the worldās leading narrative nonfiction writers by 2035 online and in print. Justin is also the author of two books, including āWhat Does Your Website Do All Day?ā His third book, _The Great Tri-State Tornado_, is available now. He finds time to write on his personal website at justinharter.com and has begun a not-so-regular email series.
