Slideshow presentation--Prezi
Prezi is a relatively easy presentation software; it's free, it's in the cloud, and it can be dramatic. Here is the No Caption Needed argument put into prezi form.

Auto-thumbs
When you insert an image into your blog, it allows you to set the size of the image. So, for example, if I upload this image on the left and then click the image, it'll allow me not only to align it left, but also to select the size. Here, i've aligned left and selected "small" for the size. However, the blog automatically creates a link to the original image, so that once this post is published, if i click the image, it leads me to the full sized image. Hit the back button to get back to the post. IOW: the blog allows you to skip the step of creating thumbnails. It does it for you.
Instructions:
First use Windows Snipping Tool or some other tool of your choice to create the necessary screenshots from your cyberculture site. (You can also use the snipping tool to lift avatar pix from WoW and other animated sites.) Save the images on your hard drive or thumbdrive or wherever. Then when you create your report on your blog (in edit mode), put your cursor where you want the image to go in your text, and click the image icon at the top (Insert Image). The dialog box will ask you to upload your image. Choose it and select it, and then the blog will put it where your cursor was. Click on it, and a ribbon of options will pop up underneath the image. Select a size and an alignment. If you want text to wrap, select either right or left. Publish your post, and that sized image will be linked to the original image at original size.
FYI, you can also insert or embed videos from your hard drive or from youtube with the "Insert a Video" icon above.

On the name
Dissemination is one consequence of iterability, and Derrida explicitly differentiates it from polysemia. Polysemia suggests that any utterance can mean different things in different contexts or even in the same context at a different time. For example, 911 can mean the emergency number in the US, the date of any old September 11, the expiration date of my credit card (Sept., 2011), or the very specific date of September 11, 2001—same phrase, different context or different time. Dissemination, however, would be the condition for polysemia; dissemination involves a repetitive scattering of signs, which break open and are inaugurally productive. Signs scatter like seeds and produce new possibilities in their repetition.
