Scopeprice | Microsoft Surface Studio Review - 0 views

  •  
    Microsoft Surface Studio is the company's first desktop PC. It is easily the most attention-grabbing new PC design of the year, even if most of its individual ideas like - external control knobs, tabletop PCs - have been seen before in different contexts. The new Studio and Surface Dial provided a stark, inventive contrast, especially for graphic designers, artists and video editors who scooped up new Macs without question in years past.

Bibliotecas digitales: reflexiones desde la práctica Qué le pedimos a los edi... - 4 views

  •  
    Sin ningún género de dudas se puede afirmar que las bibliotecas están siendo uno de los motores fundamentales de impulso del libro electrónico en aquellos países que antes han iniciado la carrera digital del libro electrónico, y han sido muchas las bibliotecas que han respondido positiva y rápidamente a este cambio de expectativas. Uno de los factores clave es la evidencia de un crecimiento exponencial en los hábitos y actitudes de lectura en dispositivos electrónicos móviles, convirtiéndose de este modo las pantallas en interfaces privilegiadas de lectura y aprendizaje [Shen 2011]; junto a nuevos entornos de aprendizaje apoyados en la tecnología, a través de sistemas de e-learning en los que las nuevas tecnologías convierten a la biblioteca en uno de los ejes de consulta de los usuarios, en los que cobra cada vez más importancia la disponibilidad, flexibilidad y movilidad de la información a través de conexiones, redes e intercambios como elementos esenciales del sistema de aprendizaje.

Goblinproofing One's Chicken Coop wins Diagram Prize | The Bookseller - 0 views

  •  
    22.03.13 | Bookseller Staff Goblinproofing One's Chicken Coop has been named as the winner of Diagram Prize for Oddest Book Title of the Year. Philip Stone, The Bookseller charts editor and Diagram Prize administrator, said: "People might think the Diagram Prize is just a bit of fun, but it spotlights an undervalued art that can make or break a work of literature. Books such as A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time all owe a sizeable part of their huge successes to their odd monikers." And then there's my favorite, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie and others in Alan Bradley's series.

The Original Fantasy: Beginnings Part 1: Cast The Spell In The First Line - 13 views

  •  
    'Beginnings are important. They are your fishing lure, your bling, your spider's web, your black hole from which there is no return until series end. It is what a new reader will judge you on, an editor will judge you on, an agent will judge you on. Frankly anyone who can read, and is looking at your book will judge you on it. No pressure.'

Weighing In: Three Bombs, Two Lips, and a Martini Glass -- NCAC - 0 views

  • why books such as Markus Zusak’s Book Thief and Annika Thor’s Faraway Island, both set during the Holocaust, and Laurie Halse Anderson’s Chains, set during the American Revolution, weren’t given any “educational value.” The editor in chief had no clear answers, but those books have now been awarded “educational value” on Common Sense Media’s site. It is clear to the nine organizations that are working hard to protect children and young adult’s freedom to read that Common Sense Media is a moving target, and their piecemeal response to such questions won’t fix what is at heart a misguided and dangerous concept.

      Wow! I had no idea. I've used the Internet saftey information and videos but didn't know about the book ratings.
  • While Common Sense Media isn’t censoring anything, it is providing a tool for censors. There is already a documented case in the Midwest where a book was removed from a school library based solely on a Common Sense review. Common Sense Media allows users to filter books by “on,” “off,” and “iffy” ratings. And reviewers are instructed to point out anything “controversial.” Such warnings encourage site browsers to take things out of context instead of looking at books as a whole.

      This is a form of censorship.
  • Bombs, lips, and martini glasses! Indeed, let them be a warning. We must be proactive in helping parents understand that rating books is dangerous. Otherwise, more censorship bombs are sure to explode.

  • If you had asked me a year ago what bombs, lips, and martini glasses have in common, I would have answered, “A fraternity party.” Now I have a different answer. It’s called Common Sense Media. This not-for-profit Web-based organization is in the business of using a “rating” system to review all types of media that target children, but their “ratings” of books are especially disingenuous. They claim that they want to keep parents informed. Informed about what? What their children should read or what they shouldn’t read?
