Doug Johnson keeps me going!

"Technology rules

20. Machines are the easy part; people are the hard

part.

21. Beware the law of unintended consequences.

22. “Explain it to me like I was 6 years old.”

23. What technology first makes possible, it soon

makes imperative.

24. Kids will always know more about some things

than you will.

25. Machines shouldn't do people's jobs.

26. Technology is neither good nor bad. The same

hammer can both break windows and build

cathedrals.

27. A policy mantra.

28. Keep technicians and paraprofessionals in the

loop.

29. Philosophy on implementing large technology

systems: I'd rather be optimistic than right.

30. The first sign of technology literacy is knowing

when to use technology and when not to use

technology.

31. You can’t be too thin, too rich or have too much

bandwidth.

32. The early worm gets eaten by the bird.

33. You must get the last person on board sooner or

later."
