  • 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.

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

CESI NEC Meeting

 

The CESI National Executive Committee met today so it looks like a root and branch renewal in underway.  A formal structure to branch meetings and activities will have to be re-established in order to draw down TPN and TPC funding.

That does not mean that the casual and informal social gatherings should cease forthwith. On [...]

Have Your Say

The post conference National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting is next Saturday. The NEC cannot be blamed for “doing their own thing” if they have no idea of what the non-attendees think or want of the society. If is fruitless sitting around a table in a pub complaining – have your say.

If anyone wants their views aired [...]
