It's A Whole New Web

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Unattributed: It's A Whole New Web, Business Week September 19, 2005

The commercial media is beginning to notice that there's something happening on the web. "A whole new Web is emerging from the wilds of cyberspace. It's no longer all about idly surfing and passively reading, listening, or watching. It's about doing: sharing, socializing, collaborating, and, most of all, creating." By the same token, though, Roland Tanglao warns us to not be fooled again. More...

AU$695 for a Blogging, Wiki, and RSS Workshop!!

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Leigh Blackall: AU$695 for a Blogging, Wiki, and RSS Workshop!!, September 19, 2005

Leigh Blackall describes, and rightly roasts, this workshop. Looking at this, I've gotta figure I'm as qualified as this guy. And if I ran one with ten people once a month, I could pretty well forget about working the rest of the time. More...

Identity Federation: Gartner Hints That Adoption Will Be Slow

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Matt Pasiewicz: Identity Federation: Gartner Hints That Adoption Will Be Slow, EDUCAUSE Blogs September 16, 2005

Interesting. "While there is high interest in identity federation, the technology is still in flux and will likely be more expensive and time-consuming to implement immediately rather than three years from now." The interest in a federation per se is shared mostly by content providers. More...

Consistency in Design is the Wrong Approach

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Jared Spool: Consistency in Design is the Wrong Approach, September 16, 2005

This is the key point: "When you think about consistency, you’re thinking about the product. When you’re thinking about current knowledge, you’re thinking about the user. They are two sides of the same coin. We’ve just noticed that the designers who spend more time thinking about the users are the ones that end up with more usable designs." A point with which, in the main, I agree. More...

Semi-Structured Meta-Data Has a Posse: A Response to Gene Smith

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Clay Shirkey: Semi-Structured Meta-Data Has a Posse: A Response to Gene Smith, September 16, 2005

It is tempting to depict Clay Skirkey's defense of tagging as setting up a false dilemma between tagging and classification, but I think his view is more that tagging forms one part of a wider picture. "Full text indexing, link analysis, trust networks, and related techniques now accomplish about 80% of what classification used to do for us." That's an image I can live with more easily than the caricature view that 'tagging will by itself replace classification'. More...

One day I hope to write a resource on grammar to complement my guide to the logical fallacies. In the mean time I will content myself to linking to online grammar resources. More...

E-Learning 2.0

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. E-Learning 2.0

September 16, 2005 I spent the day at the Canadian Heritage Information Network engaged in a lengthy and free-wheeling discussion of the concepts surrounding E-Learning 2.0 Although the PowerPoint Slides for my presentation today are basically the same as those I used in Edmonton a few months ago, the discussio0n was much more wide ranging. Audio segments (each about an hour): Part One, Part Two, Part Three. More...

A Global Conversation

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. James Torio: Blogs: A Global Conversation, September 15, 2005

Pretty nice Master's Thesis on blogs, the business of blogs and blogging as conversation. While it doesn't really break new ground (the survey, in which I think I participated, adds very little), and while the range of resources consulted could be wider, the essay nonetheless offers a good introduction to the topic and is written in an engaging and well-informed tone. More...

The Brains Business

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Adrian Wooldridge: The Brains Business, The Economist September 15, 2005

"A more market-oriented system of higher education can do much better than the state-dominated model." This is the central message being advanced in this series of articles, and the Economist is not above routine rhetorical sleight of hand to make the point (consider, for example, the false dichotomy drawn between "techno-utopians" and "cultural conservatives." Or ponder the omission of Canadian statistics in the comparisons between the U.S. system and purportedly "state-dominated" models). More...
