When I logged on to my desktop Twitter application (sad, I know) it was alive with Tweets about the earthquake in China. Most of them were from the celebrated technology blogger Robert Scoble, who is famous, perhaps notorious, for receiving a Twitter message every second of the day. He is based in California, but thousands of miles away from the quake he was providing breaking news about it, linking to sites like the BBC and the New York Times, even providing a first picture - though how authentic that is remains to be seen.

突然想到开始一个系列的讨论，作为网络行业相关工作者，想比大家经常使用很多的网络工具进行工作、学习和交际。优秀的网络工具在概念设计、功能构思、用户界面和品牌行销上有很多独到之处。 思考这些网络工具如何成长，相信也是网络工作者学习中的重要内容。所以，“Web设计小组”现在开始一个系列讨论，看看大家在平时是如何使用这些网络工具。

Education Programs Information Science Education Committee Education for Information Architecture Project Introduction The ASIS&T Information Science Education Committee is conducting a project on education for information architecture. The first phase of the project, in which the committee is currently engaged, is to gather information about existing courses and programs and to make this information available at the committee web site. The information gathered thus far is below.  Information architecture programs and courses  This listing is based on a search of the Web in March 2003 and on responses to an email survey posted on asis-l and JESSE listservs. The initial goal of the project is to identify programs and courses rather than to evaluate them or gather in-depth information.  At this point, the listing is limited to U.S. and Canadian institutions. We invite any institutions with either IA degree programs and/or courses in IA or with significant IA components to send information to the ASIS&T Information Science Education Committee for inclusion in this listing. Please send responses (and any corrections of additions) to Dietmar Wolfram (dwolfram@uwm.edu).
