  • Apple Digital Bootcamp - 2010-08-23 18:22:57 -

    I have just finished my first day of three at the Apple Digital Bootcamp being held in Alexandra College, Milltown, Dublin. It was a long day 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. filled will hands-on practical workshops. The event was organised by the INTO with the full support of Apple Ireland. Typetec ltd supplied the Apple hardware to the PC community. Both primary and post-primary teachers are being fast-tracked by experts through podcasting, animation, digital photography, videography, music, etc. I can't wait for tomorrow - if I can get up in the morning.

  • WeatherPixie is under the weather - 2010-08-07 15:43:04 -

    The WeatherPixie.com has been experiencing server trouble for the last 6 months and is in need of pixie dust. It was definitely down at the end of February as it was pointed out to me in some of my birthday greetings.  I have just gone onto the site and it is empty except for a Twitter link for @weatherpixieHQ .  Judging from the last tweet on March 7th nothing else seems to be happening. Bearing that in mind I am going to retire WeatherPixie from the sidebar until further developments have taken place on the site.

I upgraded podPress to version 7.8. The most noticeable new feature is the default image preview which replaces the blank grey screen. Nice one!

IEEE v USB2

Judging from the emails and phone calls I received during the week, Firewire (IEEE) is not standard on the lower specification desktop PCs – sorry about that!

Personally, I would opt for the firewire bundle any day even if it meant buying a card. Unlike the USB version the firewire kit has a distinct professional feel and appearance.

Having [...]

Slán Froogle

Froogle beta has gone and given way to Google Product Search. It was very useful for price comparison when shopping online or bidding on eBay. This is also a beta service. I wonder how long this will last.

Marian Rollins R.I.P.

It was with great sadness that I learned of the passing of Marian Rollins at the beginning of the Easter holidays.

Marion celebrated life through her passion for nature's broad canvas and she enriched the lives of students and teachers alike with her knowledge of and enthusiasm for the vast subject. She was an educator, always willing to "run [...]
