Everything Steve Johnson Writes About is Bad For You

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Alan Levine: Everything Steve Johnson Writes About is Bad For You, Cogdogblog September 8, 2005

Alan Levine reviews Steven Johnson's book, Everything Bad Is Good For You, and gives it four paws up. He writes, "Johnson's view on pop culture is so fresh, new, and insightful, it is invigorating. So maybe if you don't buy that 'pop culture is actually making us smarter' this book should give some deeper thought before just dismissing pop culture as a wasteland". More...

Smart Internet 2010

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Tom Hoffman: Smart Internet 2010, ESchool News September 8, 2005

Summary of a recent report released in Australia, Smart Internet 2010. The comment from Boing Boing is (typically) condescending: "It covers a lot of ground (much of it likely familiar to you if you're a regular BB reader), aimed at a general audience (e.g., net-clueless regulators)". More...

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Chris Anderson: The New Architecture of Production, The Long Tail September 8, 2005

Interesting diagram depicting the 'new architecture of production', one where, instead of merely a producer and consumer, you also have different types of remixers taking part. More...

Google Announces Plan To Destroy All Information It Can't Index

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Parody: Google Announces Plan To Destroy All Information It Can't Index, September 8, 2005

A little humour to begin the day, and to wrap up blogging from the ALT-C conference. You'll notice the link to my summary of Etienne Wenger's talk just above; my own talk ran into a recording glitch, so MP3 may not be available until next week. Meanwhile, I'm losing my internet access (I have none at the hotel), so this may be the last of OLDaily until Monday. More...

Maag: E-pod Update

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Margaret Maag: E-pod Update, Educause September 7, 2005

Is that what they're going to be called? Educational podcasts, I mean. E-pods? Anyhow, author Margaret Maag has created her, um, e-pod and in so doing offers a nice example of the practice. More...

Semantic MediaWiki: Attributes and Relations

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Graham Glass: Semantic MediaWiki: Attributes and Relations, September 7, 2005

I'm somewhat intrigued by the idea of a semantic wiki, but express caution that it could get complex (and hence, obscure) in a hurry. I mean, straightforward prfopositions involving concrete entities ("Berlin is the capital of [[is capital of::Germany]], Berlin has [[population:=3.390.444]] inhabitants" seem so intuitive. More...

Quickie Videos Made and Distributed by Instructors

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Lanny Arvan: Quickie Videos Made and Distributed by Instructors, September 7, 2005

Discussion of a phenomenon we will be seeing a lot more of over the next few years, online video snippets made by professors using laptops, screen captures, and maybe video cameras. More...

Wouldn't it Be Nice If...

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Scott Wilson: Wouldn't it Be Nice If..., Scott's Workblog September 7, 2005

A one-liner from Scott Wilson that concludes "... conference wireless access didn't routinely block chat? I'm at ALT-C and suffering AIM withdrawal" (That's the entire post so you don't need to click on the link). More...

SSHRC - National Consultation on Research Data Archiving

By Stephen Downes - Stephen's Web. Press Release: SSHRC - National Consultation on Research Data Archiving, Management and Access Systems, September 7, 2005

I hadn't seen this before Daniel Lemire sent me an email, but there's still plenty of time to get your submissions in - the deadline is October 31, 2005. Basically, the question is whether Canada's Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council should institute a process of open archiving, or as the email says, "Should SSHRC adopt a regulation requiring that one copy of all research results be deposited in an institutional repository? Should such a regulation apply to all forms of research outputs". More...
