    Steve Jobs' obituary on wired news. He died too young but lived while he lived. May innovation at Apple not die with him. I think this makes us all sad because so much of innovation in the last years have been tied up with his leadership and vision that it is hard to imagine a world without him. I think it is harder to imagine imagination without him. Do we have the creativity in us to come up with things no one has thought of and improve millions of lives?

    During his presentation, the Kansas State University professor breaks down his attempts to integrate Facebook, Netvibes, Diigo, Google Apps, Jott, Twitter, and other emerging technologies to create an education portal of the future. "It's basically an ongoing experiment to create a portal for me and my students to work online," he explains. "We tried every social media application you can think of. Some worked, some didn't."

  • to download means to receive data to a local system from a remote system, or to initiate such a data transer.
  • Examples of a remote system might from which a download might be performed include a webserver, FTP server, email server, or other similar systems. A download can mean either any file that is offered for downloading or that has been downloaded, the process of receiving such a file.
  • In contrast, the term downloading is distinguished from the related concept of streaming, which indicates the receiving of data that is used near immediately as it is received, while the transmission is still in progress and which may not be stored long-term, whereas in a process described using the term downloading, this would imply that the data is only usable when it has been received in its entirety.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • The use of the terms uploading and downloading often imply that the data sent or received is to be stored permanenently, or at least stored more than temporarily.
  • When there is a transfer of data from a remote system to another remote system, the process is called "remote uploading".

    This is the wikipedia description of OLPC. It consists of many aspects of the project.

    The concept of OLPC is a fascinating one. There are many issues with trading inside Africa but perhaps the coolest aspect of this is the "mesh" concept where one computer literally grabs internet off another OLPC that is nearby. The hand crank is also very cool as well.
