Podcast Transcript:
Welcome to the Learning Technologies Podcast. Today’s topic is …Microsoft MS Paint. Microsoft is dropping various features and functionalities from its new build. In preparation for the release of the Fall Creators Update, Microsoft has published the full list of stories that will be removed or depreciated from the new build.
MSPaint will be sorely missed. It was the gateway for new and vintage computer nerds.
What is your reaction to Microsoft’s decision? Are there other applications and programs that we should also mourn?
Thank you for considering these questions with me. I enjoy learning from you! Please leave a comment and let’s keep the discussion going.

Democracy and Education. p. 173 as quoted by Robert C. Lagueux here
