The Last Several Week in Browsing
I’m getting sloppy with my “This Week in Browsing” posts. I’ll try to do better, because this is info I want to catalog, and it’s info that I think needs to be shared.
The 3rd and the 7th, a short film by Alex Roman – Absolutely amazing. (via Gruber)
Computers are Dumb – Make Smarter Learning – Good article. I am increasingly frustrated with lame interactions in e-Learning. You’d think that we’d have something better by now.
This quote is the key:
“Don’t just have your learners interact with the computer — have them interact with other people.”
Validation, collaboration, accountability, etc. are better defined, delivered and received by humans. Use the computer to deliver some content – use humans to deliver the rest.
Dreaming of an Apple Tablet – I’m in the same boat. 95% of the time, my Macbook Pro is a desktop. But I need it to be portable that other 5%, and I want all my music, files, photos, etc. when I’m on the go. Not sure where I’m headed with my setup.
An Amalgamation of Predictions and Questions Regarding the Apple Tablet – Amalgamation, indeed. Thorough and thoughtful.
Viewing PDFs in a Browser on a Mac – Good stuff from Philip – I’m tired of Adobe.
Spanning Sync Update, Discount Coupon and Easy Money
Spanning Sync, which I’ve been using for over a year now to sync my Mac and iPhone with Google Calendar and Contacts, has some really great updates over the last couple of months. I’m just getting around to posting about it.
First off, their Save $5, Make $5 program is still going strong. It’s easy money folks. Use code D8BYCM when you sign up for the subscription, and you get your own discount code. Find four people who need this sync functionality, and you’ve made your money back. Find more and you’re making money for using a tool that you’ll use anyway. Pretty sweet.
In addition, Spanning Tools are available, and they’ve recently announced a Spanning Backup service that is looking for beta testers. They also helped Postbox develop their referral program. Pretty sweet. It’s a Save $10, Make $5 program. For $10 off Postbox, use coupon code R7AJZ. Postbox is a mailbox manager for Windows and Mac.
If you’re on a Mac, and you use Google tools, or if you just want to make some easy money, you need Spanning Sync.
