Jeremy has had to shutdown ResumeWiki due to wiki spam. This is an unfortunate event, I hope he is able to get it back up and running. ResumeWiki was a great concept Jeremy set up late last year allow job seekers to publish their resume and allow others to provide feedback and change the resumeContinue reading “ResumeWiki Shutdown”

From Scoble about Dan Mitchell who has a blog at http://www.teachnology.org covering teaching and technology, who received a cease and desist letter from an organisation that runs their site at http://www.teach-nology.com. Yet another great blog, into the RSS feed reader it goes. While Dan only posts about once a week, if you are into educationContinue reading “Teachnology a new term or an old one worth suing over”

Another item from Trevor Cook about a very sad case of death by PowerPoint. Ok once you have read the story my pun might be a bit on the tacky side, but am currently in a project management role and the story kind of stuck a cord and no I am not suicidal 🙂

The interview brings up 5 very good lessons which should form the basis of a blogger’s code of conduct. I find this story interesting for several reasons. Firstly how quickly Mark managed to getContinue reading “More on the Google blogger who got fired”

The power of Pubsub and Technorati should never be underestimated. Steve Rubel was talking at length about this recently in his interview on G’Day World. My find of the day is Tom King’sblog from MacroMedia on eLearning. Tom seems to be a corporate blogger from MacroMedia focusing on eLearning and the application of their toolsContinue reading “Macromedia & eLearning”
