  • Here it is. I'm dead, and this is my last post to my blog. In advance, I asked that once my body finally shut down from the punishments of my cancer, then my family and friends publish this prepared message I wrote—the first part of the process of turning this from an active website to an archive.

    Thanks for enhancing my knowledge about this. :-) It is interesting to think about how important what we call things is.

  • Real identity has improved the tone and tenor of interaction online.
  • Anonymity has its place. It protects the speech of Chinese dissidents, Iranian protestors, and corporate whistleblowers. It allows Wikileaks to expose secrets. It helps people share, for example, medical data and benefit others without having to reveal themselves.
  • But anonymity is often the cloak of cowards.

    Open source software for web based document authoring, publishing, and annotating. Looks very slick. It could potentially be brought in house.

    Hey, Brad ... I took a look at Substance and am very intrigued -- all in javascript? What does that mean for deployment in PASS? Is that something you have in the back of your mind? I'd like to learn more, but need you to teach me!
  • bkozlek on 27 Feb 11
     
    Substance uses server-side javascript, so it is not a plug right into existing webspace. That doesn't mean it can't be run at penn state.

  • After extensive student interviews throughout the Fall 2010 semester, "The bottom line feeling was that the Amazon Kindle DX was not adequate for use in a higher education curricular setting," Chief Technology Officer Martin Ringle tells Fast Company. "The bottom line for the iPad was exactly the opposite."
  • The silver-medal feature, with only a few strikes against its score, was the highlighting and annotation of text.
  • With the exception of scanned PDF files, the students found "highlighting was easier on th
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Apple’s new favorite child is not without its flaws. The virtual keyboard is a pain for composing anything beyond short notes. The nonexistent file system makes finding important documents difficult and sharing across applications nearly impossible. Finally, managing a large number of readings in PDF format becomes a major time-suck. Syncing PDFs via iTunes was found to be "needlessly complicated," emailing marked-up versions back to oneself was "prohibitively time-consuming," and even the cloud-based storage, Dropbox, "failed to work seamlessly with PDF reading/annotating applications."
  • Perhaps the most impactful discovery was that none of the iPad's strengths are unique to Apple. According to the report, “the new wave of Android-based tablets seems likely to provide an appealing alternative that will result in the coexistence of at least two competing tablet operating systems.”
  • Chris Millet on 18 Feb 11
     
    Annotation is a huge need with these devices, at least how they seem be typically used (as eBook readers). I use Papers to annotate and sync PDF's with my laptop, and the Diigo bookmarklet to annotate web pages, both of which work very well for me. When it comes to iPads, I'd like to see more discussion extending beyond eBook functionality though. This article is obviously comparing the iPad to the Kindle, and only briefly mentioned "more exciting possibilities". But it seems silly to say "iPad officially passes the higher education test" by just talking about documents and annotation.

    This certainly could be useful to make decisions about a project, or just to bounce ideas around an organization (or with faculty) to see which ones stick. I like that there's a disagree choice too. Many tools like this, you either agree or don't vote, but its useful to count disagrees separately.
