Productivity in the Work Place

To improve productivity in booking and managing school facilities & equipment such as meeting rooms, computer laboratories etc at your workplace, try MRBS (I guess it is the acronym for Meeting Room Booking System) at http://mrbs.sourceforge.net/

Or to create a booking system using Google Calendar, see the article at
http://articles.evolvedwebsites.com.au/google-calendar-a-simple-booking-system/313/

and the implemented system for a small business at

I am now trying to set up a simple site template for a booking system...
https://sites.google.com/site/bookingsytem/

Takes some effort but I think it is a good mental exercise and above all it is a free system by the courtesy of Google Inc.

......I really think Google Inc. is a cool company that allows the small businesses and people to tap on the internet technologies for free to learn to level up their 21st Century lifeskills before they move on to really use paid commercial software and systems for full scale commercial activities.

Inking Directly Onto A Web Page

Well today I was thinking of surfing the web to find out any new tools which could be of educational purpose and enhance learning and communications.

So I found something on

1. Microsoft Silverlight

2. Article on Microsoft Web Inking
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/mobile/webinkctrl.aspx

Hmmm... too heavy for me and still trying to understand how to implement it.

But I know it will be very interesting. If pupils can write directly onto a wiki page or web page or even Google Document, then it is like handing up paperless homework!

Wow...
