This document discusses how access to information and communication technologies is changing education. It notes that emerging technologies like ultra fast broadband, virtualization, cloud computing, and ubiquitous access through converging devices are allowing education to become available anywhere, anytime, and through many mediums. This represents a profound change similar to past innovations like the electrical grid.

The Audioverse In Your Pocket - Invited Talk at ABC Radio National - Harries ...Michael Harries
Public radio, and radio in general, is at risk of disruption by new audio technologies (podcasts, etc). However there are interesting opportunities when a longer-term technology-strategy view is brought to bear.
This presentation is from an invited talk at the Australian ABC Radio National ( August 2009) as part of their strategic process.
Here's how they describe themselves: "With over 60 distinct programs each week, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Radio National is different from any other radio station in Australia. Where else could you hear, for example, an exploration of ideas in science, followed by the latest in books from around the world, then a program about the mind and human behaviour?"

A Lecture given during a Learning Lunch at A Hundred Years. Overviewing the changing web and how the Internet of Things is impacting the use of the internet and how designers thing about it.
Towards user co-creation of value on the Internet-of-Things (IoT)trappenl
With the promise of an Internet-of-Things, an abundance of connected smart objects around us will collaborate to deliver us novel services that we couldn’t have dreamt of before. But, how should we, as an industry, prepare for this? How can we create (new) value for our customers?
Let’s start with some history. In the last years, the general availability of creation tools and distribution mechanisms for digital media has resulted in a so-called long tail of user created digital artefacts complementing the commercial offering of online media. Everyone can now create movies and put them on YouTube. A similar trend is ongoing for web resources where toolkits for creating mash-ups are complemented with online communities for sharing APIs and code.
I will present some inhibiting factors that prevent this wave of mass creativity to start in the world of connected Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. How can people trust services delivered by the IoT? How can they understand the services delivered to them by the smart environment? And, finally, how can users actively participate in this Internet-of-Things, as they do now on the Web?
I will zoom into this last aspect by addressing the required tools and sharing mechanisms for non-technical users to participate and co-create value on the Internet-of-Things. I will use SenseTale.com as one example trying to fill this gap. SenseTale is a live research prototype resulting from multi-disciplinary research that offers an online marketplace for IoT applications, real-time data and user created high-level abstractions thereof. SenseTale offers a first glimpse of a 3-sided marketplace where creative users, developers, and device manufacturers meet.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
