  • NextGen Slideshow Fixed - 2011-09-17 20:53:34 -

    I uninstalled the NextGEN plugin and reinstalled it but my gallery links were demolished. I will re-import them to set up a new link table - when I have time. Thanks again for the heads up.

    No I am not giving up on blogging or podcasting!

    On the contrary, I have 96 private postings from the last 14 months on various topics which I shared with 43 WordPress trainees. 29 of these WordPress enthusiasts are from the eTwinning community and the remainder are teachers from around Ireland and some PC users who attended last year's Digital Bootcamp organised by the INTo and delivered by Apple last summer in Alexander College, Dublin.

    I will tidy them up, especially the posts with links and publish them (publicly) over the next few weeks.

    Thanks for the "Back 2 School" emails.

Sad Twitter

I couldn’t tweet in school yesterday as Twitter is blocked by the School Broadband Network. That was not always the case.

Certain well known discjockys and people of restricted vocabulary have a lot to answer for.

People of that ilk should recognise their public responsiblity to present their opinions [...]

WordPress.com Blocked!

I was surprised to discover this morning that http://www.dublincesi.wordpress.com was blocked by FortiNet, the contracted filtering service for the the Schools’ Broadband Network. I checked out Virtual Education http://virtued.wordpress.com/ and it too is blocked. Both blogs were accessible before the CESI conference -  a week earlier!

I doubt if it was a policy decision! Well [...]

Twitter on RTE

Ireland needs tweetment.

John Heffernan of the NCTE was on the ball at the CESI Meet in the Maldron Hotel, Tallaght last Friday.

He introduced the audience to Twitter and some of its colourful users and uses.

To top it all I have just listened to a [...]

CESI Dublin Import

The  first attempt to export the content of the  CESI Dublin blog met with partial success.

I presume it is a matter of permissions as some of the contributors and authors posted privately and I will have to contact after mid-term break.

Their project is entitled “Make film and share IT with [...]

WordPress 2.7.1

I upgraded the site to WordPress 2.7.1 a few minutes ago. This is my second attempt as the first run seemed to clash with my animated cloud tag plugin. All seems to be fine this time around. The sideblog plugin seems to experiencing problems as all its posts are in [...]

President Barack Obama’s Inaugural Address

This is a panoramic ‘high definition’ stitched image. Zoom in (‘double-click’ on any area) ….and watch it seem to focus automatically. You can almost read the music scores of the band. What a [...]
