I felt bad for leaving on two levels - one, because it meant Byron would be there for another half hour, and two, because my primary motivation for not helping is that I just generally don't like Byron as much as any of the other dishwashers. That makes him more worthy of a little break. Next time. |

Manila Question (Oct 20 2003 13:58 GMT) - I posted this on the Manila and Frontier sites with no replies, so maybe someone else out there can help. How can I limit the number of lines that the Manila aggregator displays when showing new posts? I don't want full post aggregation, just the first four lines. Anyone have any ideas? |

Frontier is a Dying Platform (Oct 20 2003 13:58 GMT) - Tom Hoffman, who is doing some really cool things with open source CMS type programs up in Providence, has a far better understanding of all this technology than I do. He's demonstrating COREBlog which is a Web log interface for Zope, which I don't have any clue about. He may be right when he says "Regular weblog tools aren't designed for the kind of enterprise integration and complex roles needed for large scale deployments in schools" (though I hope he's wrong about Frontier...at least in the short term.) But it's eventually all going to come down to the same issues: |

Using Syndication in Schools (Oct 20 2003 13:58 GMT) - I've been thinking more and more about how to mine the possibilites of RSS for teachers. There are a lot of obvious applications: tracking student work in Web logs, being able to scour Websites for school info, communicating with parents, etc. But I think there are a lot of ways to embed it into good practice as well. One of the areas I want to delve into more is the creation of news feeds for Feedster or Goolge Alerts. |

Jimpy @ 10/20/2003 09:27 AM (Oct 20 2003 13:56 GMT) - Mike - I feel very discriminated against. I mean really, telling us we both need to get laid, when one of us is newly engaged, and the other is a new father co-sleeping with a 7 month old? Why not really rub salt in the wound, and advise us both that we need 'to go on a honeymoon?' |

Des Services Web a l'EDI (Oct 20 2003 13:54 GMT) - 20 octobre 2003 - L'EDI n'est plus desormais considere que comme le grand-pere de l'e-business, mais, loin de se mettre en retraite, continue a se developper, en particulier aux USA. Comme, en meme temps, les jeunes Services Web font beaucoup de bruit et s'annoncent incontournables, l'articulation Services Web et EDI doit aboutir a une complementarite et non a une guerre de chapelles. |
