Net Neutrality FAQ: What's in it for You - PC World - 0 views

  •  
    Net neutrality is an important issue being addressed by the US government right now to prevent companies from sort of creating their own version of the Internet. These rules are supposed to keep things "open." I'm also sending these to my digiteen students (you can follow digiteen at http://www.twitter.com/digiteen) and Flat Classroom students (http://www.twitter.com/flatclassroom) for work on their project.
  •  
    Very important overview of "net neutrality" being debated and discussed here in the USA. This would be an important topic to include under government and business for the Flat Classroom Project.

  • A cell phone is a example of mobile and ubiquitous computing. A cell phone is mobile because it is able to be moved from one place to another. A cell phone is also ubiquitous because two people are able to communicate from different places by calling one another as well as SMS and video messaging. Lastly, a cell phone is classified as a computing device because it accepts input, processes that input into data that the cell phone can read, and produces output as information that a human can read.
  • Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing can be broken down into three separate words that can come together to make one topic. First, mobile means able to be moved. There are many technological mobile devices. There are cell phones, Ipods, portable DVD players, PDAs, laptops, and many other devices that can be moved or transported from one place to another. Second, ubiquitous means being present everywhere at once. Having the ability to stream live from a camera or cell phone to a website over the Internet makes that particular video ubiquitous.

    "The second steroid involves instant messaging and file sharing. Being able to share files from peer to peer is considered ubiquitous because the files can be everywhere and mobile because the files can be moved. Instant messaging is a huge breakthrough in the technological world. People can send instant messaging via cell phone, computer , PDA. This steroid revolutionized communication."

    "The World Wide Web (known as "WWW', "Web" or "W3") is the universe of network-accessible information, the embodiment of human knowledge. The World Wide Web began as a networked information project at CERN, where Tim Berners-Lee, now Director of the World Wide Web Consortium [W3C], developed a vision of the project. The Web has a body of software, and a set of protocols and conventions. Through the use hypertext and multimedia techniques, the web is easy for anyone to roam, browse, and contribute to. An early talk about the Web gives some more background on how the Web was originally conceived. "

Virtual communication - 0 views

  • Virtual communication is breaking down barriers that have separated people for centuries. A new wave of technology is exploding into society. What other device could permit a student in a rural community of south Georgia,Los Angeles, or Missouri in the United States of America to connect with a student in metropolitan Bangladesh, Australia, China, Austria, or Qatar?
  •  
    This is last year's page. This is a good explanation of Virtual communication. this is specifically the common forms of virtual communication
  •  
    This was talking about virtual communication and what it is. It was saying how it is used in everyday life and how people use it. By talking to someone over the internet that's in a distant location is virtual communication.

White House opens website programming to public - 2 views

  • The online-savvy administration on Saturday switched to open-source code for http://www.whitehouse.gov - meaning the programming language is written in public view, available for public use and able for people to edit.
  •  
    The whitehouse.gov will look the same to most people except that what is behind it is part of the open source movement with the whitehouse code - now powered by Drupal -- is open source. For educators, if you've found administrators objecting to the open source movement, maybe you should consider using the white house as an example.
  •  
    Open source sofware, like that used by drupal, is being used by many more organizations and gaining acceptance in governments now, like the USA with the white house.

    This is an image that shows that mobile connectivity is useful during conferences. People get to search what others are saying to get a more basic, general idea.

Tuttle SVC: 2008 Winners: FiveThirtyEight.com - 0 views

  • If I was someone who gave lots of talks at ed-tech conferences about "Web 2.0" and such, I'd definitely add a piece about the success of FiveThirtyEight.com. Since over three and a half million people visited the site last month (beating out established blogs like Talking Points Memo, for example), there is a pretty good chance you've already seen it.
  •  
    Read this if you're covering politics and take a look at the fivethrigtyeight.com blog.
  •  
    Tom HOffman shares some of the background story of fivethirtyeight.com - a great story of collaboration and work and how "no names" become somebody with hard work, intelligence, persistence, and a commitment to "do it right" sans an agenda.
