TJ Morris Media — Who Trains The Trainers in OSI PUBLIC
Educational Research Associates Community Online Practicing Skills — Since 2008
By Theresa J. Thurmond Morris / TJ Morris | American Communications Online | ERA COPS
Since 2008, ERA COPS has been my public classroom for what we now call OSI — Open Source Intelligence Volunteers practicing skills in public.
Before GitHub, before Copilot, before ACOClub.app — there was Blogger.
I used Blogger to make announcements to myself — field notes, training prompts, sometimes just a reminder after a session in our recording studio on Pro Tools. I bought Pro Tools while I was writing songs. We still have those sessions archived. We still have to PURGE and curate — that’s part of the continuity work.
ERA COPS was never just a brand. It is:
Educational — we teach how to research
Research — we verify sources and preserve masters
Associates — we work as a community, not solo
Community Online — we practice skills in public so others can learn
What ERA COPS Brands Hold:
- Blogger articles (2008-2024) — our original announcement board to self and community
- ACIR public-safe briefings
- ACE Folklife oral histories and cultural preservation notes
- Pro Tools studio sessions — voice, lecture, and training drafts
- Today’s 7 PLATES SALS Round Robin Research Program
What “Trains The Trainers” Means Now:
- Master Archive First: We preserve the original file — audio, transcript, article — in our private archive (ACIR continuity)
- Public Reference Second: We publish a public-safe version via TJ Morris Agency / ACO Association / TheresaJMorris.com
- Distribution Third: We adapt that reference for Medium, Substack, Blogger, WordPress — Create Once, Distribute Many
From Blogger to WordPress to ACOClub.app
If you followed me on Blogger, you were already in ERA COPS — practicing open-source skills before we had a name for it. Now that practice has a home:
- TJ Morris Agency — tjmorrisagency.com/wp-admin — your easiest entry for publishing (this post)
- TheresaJMorris.com — public author and media hub
- ACOAssociation.com — authors, developers, and stewarded distribution network
- ACOCub.app / ACOClub.app — the portal for 7 PLATES SALS
Next Step — PURGE and Publish:
We are in PURGE phase for old Pro Tools sessions and Blogger drafts — separating what is public-safe (ACO) from what stays in ACIR private continuity. Trainers will be shown how to do this same separation.
If you trained with me since 2008 on Blogger, you are already ERA COPS. Come re-register as OSI PUBLIC Volunteer at ACOClub.app.
This is TJ Morris Media — training the trainers.
