courseware
going to look at the eduscape generally regarding courseware delivery, and specifically regarding contexts such as open university social sciences interdependence day.
reference:
search courseware
search related new economics
also will check guides for library classifications and search processes for simplex clouds or tagging. eg information = education, reference, knowledge management, data; ideas = position, debate, faith; co-operation = networking, collaboration; information + design = data architecture

for sidebar. a few posts back, monitor stop working. not broken, stop working. so spare, 14" crt! from 17" lcd!, had to be got from storage. broken nails! of course, it couldn't JUST plug straight in, in anyway, so started an alphabet soup merry-go-round. EXTREMELY blurry screen at login following attempted improvement. so of to borrow pc for solution investigation. alphabet soup galore, edited, almost, to a 2 page itenary. returning @ evening. you know that tedious login? yep. just do it by memory. THERE IS NO PROBLEM, AFTER LOGIN. right, after some rooting around lets try to improve on status quo, again.UH UH. its broke again. no it's not, yes it is. Well, it's not so bad after all then! Hello varied configuration computer!!! Just type while you're ahead.
(in the meantime hacked around the, without manual, (music) keyboard to find how the demo pieces were minutely put together)
keyboard now with fastest downloaded and copied manual and tech sheets you can imagine.

sharings
google's rss feed reader share function makes convenient quality information presentation. can such feed readers then have plural shared folders? simply, probably not. however, a folders seperate feed, individual items can re-label, can be a particular share. then, there's notebook, docs, sheets, tweets, bleats yada. what tho are the costs of such storage!
so the problem may be most conveniently solved differently. are readers gonna read all sharer's shared items? likely not. what are those bookmarking processes? and via rss?
not quite convenient enough? maybe more so when code adds an click functionality within sharer's reader post panels or toolbars.
which is a form of aggregation. lets mention pipes, eg pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/. such a setup would allow placement of a panel of links of last 'saved' items, for example. whilst allowing combinations of sequences of selective aggregation or filtering, these data feeds are however preset, not selective, streams. quite so. see posting, "everyone is trying to say something particularily".
are user-scripts and similar, such as pipes, over-specific. hope so!
search on.

wrong business bud
"Why doth the sun make a man black, and dirt white, and make wax soft, and dirt hard? By reason of the disposition of the substance that doth suffer. All humours, phlegm excepted, when they are heated above measure, do seem black about the skin, and die, being full either of saltpetre or salt liquor; when the sup hath consumed its dregs and filth, doth become white again, when the sun hath drawn and stirred up the humidity of the wax, it is softened; but in dirt the sun doth consume the humidity which is very much, and so doth dry it and make it hard."
The Works of Aristotle - The Problems of Alexander Aphrodiseus.

instructions
developing themes from a previous post is this
impressive set of instructions
similarities to
open course ware mit
whereas down the road
this is happening
also:
"Hollywood studios are squeezing every processor cycle out of the fastest hardware currently available to design and render ever-greater special effects scenes. If these computers are capable of creating the graphics used in The Two Towers, the second film in Lord Of The Rings trilogy for example, then they should have the power and stability to be able to handle any sound recording job we can throw at them. The suprise is that the film studios are not all using super-expensive hardware and esoteric operating systems to perform this mission-critical work. Increasingly, they are using off-the-shelf hardware that is not fundamentally different from today's desktop computers, and they are running the freely available Linux operating system."

looking at gui's
musicovery, liveplasma, megite-discover, clear forest gnosis and touchgraph.
we like good gui's. the musicovery moodamator is prima. this gui is functional and responsive. checkboxing discovery and non-hit, and moving the joystick such as when a call makes for mood change is great. it doesn't currently 'learn' your listening preferences or offer tracking like last.fm tho' offering greater immediate and direct control similar to deezer the frightening jukebox-like emulator alligator which does it all and no need for gui. listen by keyword!
more seriously, similar processes used for touchgraph - TGGoogleBrowser. will make a performance comparison against kartoo.com.

what sort of communication organisation
spiders back from vacation. food all wrapped.
bbc had whats on listings that caused upset in industry as it threatened some trade competitive opportunities.
whatson b4 n'auspicious date whatson afta
so how then did bbc do better job linking outside pages than its internal infernal duplicate or intermediary or partial links. see programmes now/next. what advantage could there be with an effective 'programmes now/next' view?
its henry v+iii. chasing departing transport services. never mind, catch next one! OR, on demand.
a bit surprising how much the shows condense to. they almost dissappear up their own usb-mic connector. podcast = edited recording. so they can just say any rubbish crap because morons will listen and anybody else will just take summarise.

pimp some ware. hip 2 da max
set up pc on by mouse click ... base unit is awkward under desk. doesn't get accidentally triggered like keyboard. saving 4 seconds every power-on.
installed, and set-up, the mouse gesture extension application, easygestures
... bit like steering wheel, and offers similar exercise! may get some more buttons to make even more of this.
having no success with storing playlist (out-of-box), one click to next programme source, on vlc all-format player, but discovered it can open multiple feeds simultaneously, eg in any language combination speech + public service scanner + ambient/experimental + other music!!!! you can bleep craps out for life for you anyway. (this all gets set on its own workplace panel).
good stuff, well done, thanks for any tips, folks
third place?

bananas all round.
got to the backend of 2 rough projects.
unintentional shoulder diy worked. thats 6+ months of pain and misdirection lifting off! did a jack-box move . . getting from seat to aisle on a bus handsfree. grossly painful, but as hoped it reset shoulder. is that dumb with pain? had been very uncomfortably displaced, felt like fuzz in the joints ... enough to interfere with keyboarding. work capacity is increased now ... making up lots time ... hello rsi! this is a second recent joint self re-location. they overlapped. other being almost broken 16 months displaced ankle. this is the issue with meds. it seems one has to go in
the first instance otherwise .......... ...... . now is that one down on meds?! yet, tis cause they're often such a letdown. meds and a grudging xray appointment missed anything, and didn't fix the ankle. at last beginning
inline skating, andwalking, did.
from a back-burner:
browsed over this site
a while back and clicked around. what is the internet for?!
an exercise essentially in titles and referral links
an adsframe and style over lack of content or purpose
one link gets to.
a cyber sub-net or intranet that read, "We're having a bit of a clear-out of Syntagma Digital's stock this month. Some inventory will be dropped completely, while newer, fresher sites will be added. Moneyizor, our 4th network magazine is now up, and new sites are being developed for it. Stay close. John Evans, Executive Editor"

solutions for google users who DO use folders
these base on alphanumeric sorting precedence, eg . 1 a A where punctuations sorting first, then numbers and capitals last.
for google bookmarks:
the position is to use a few main 'labels' as possible by using 'sub-labels' but google employee didn't has done this now.
this partial solution;
for a given main 'label', called EXAMPLE, we make 'sub-labels' ASTRo, BASTRo, or CASTRo.
when choosing adding some bookmarks within EXAMPLE 'main label' but also is 'sub-label' we just only use EXAMPLE 'main label' for topical bookmarks, but adding ASTRO, BASTRO, or CASTRO for example as 'PREFIX' to any google bookmark NAME for sub-topic bookmarks where ASTRO, BASTRO, or CASTRO represent sub-topic.
this achieves some second sorting as a form of 'sub-label' for this 'label' eXAMPLE.
or do one of this.
for other google stuff:
this similarly does sub-sorting in google reader, amongst other applications.
also there is a greasemonkey script called Folders4Gmail or gmail-folders
and
2006/10/31/prioritizing-feeds-in-google-reader/
so there are some hybrid folders or labels or tags processes for your use

... there must be sayings about this -
Jessops photo is closing 81 of 340 stores "after fast-falling digital compact and memory card prices hit its sales...."
So they are right now having closing sale in those stores..
my sentiments on passing jessops stores ... lol! ... and I have been in about 10 times and asked 3 questions in 20 years

in your lap!
getting a bit wusty so heres some backfill posting.
we have been browsing webcams.
found a good directory as well.
seems to be a lot of debate on competiting broadband with free laptop offers.
whats next; someone actually browsing for you? it suggests there's some incidental benefits to the offerors!!
cant help thinking about those pridiculous battery kid-computers that are STILL swilling around. the only argument for which must be possible electric shock for some very vandalistic kid .
u go folks, get all those computers to use!!!

whats up doc? first lines and the medical practitioners
what is it the meds ask you, after they have said how are you feeling! as if you in passing might have been wanting to splurge to chew fat with doc!!!
got an oral infection. changing batteries can't be that difficult OR go recharge! ... teeth gone sensitive to tapping (around 12 day back) ... well things coming up increasing neuralgia getting to yesterday we dragged out the penicillin we purchased a previous time! this is an oral, soft tissues infection generalist.
and ... paracetamol.
the tooth sensitivity reduced ... but now the hard palate is swelling MORE and PAINFUL ... this is infection in recession! the medical professions have powerful forces with them! bluff enough to have monday first thing calls being intended. however midday monday and things seem pacific! don't forget dentists knock about in mouths and gp's are basically dipsticks if nothing else. so help other sufferers and keep Q's at the meds DOWN!
if we don't write again ... we been got.
