IBM Backs Open-source Web Software

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. IBM Backs Open-source Web Software
IBM is announcing support for PHP. I would rather it were Perl, because I find PHP cumbersome. Still, it's absolutely a move in the right direction, and I'd much rather work with PHP or Python than Java. More...

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. International Journal of Knowledge and Learning
Miltiadis D. Lytras announces "that the inaugural double issue of the International Journal of Knowledge and Learning, published by Inderscience, is available from our official web site."
