Share everywhere: creating content with legs slideshare
The OERPub team is making it easy to create and edit OER and expanding the options for publishing and sharing content. Last year we created an importer that takes content from Word, Google Docs, and blogs and makes it remixable by unifying the formats. We then used simple software hooks to publish the content to repositories like Connexions.
This year are adding an easy-to-use, open source document editor so that authors can create content from scratch or edit the content they imported. We are incorporating research-driven principles so that authors used to Word and Google Docs can still create beautiful remixable content. Rather than asking authors to learn complicated markup, we are using authors’ natural actions to provide just-in-time semantic choices and convenient templates for editing.
We are expanding the options for sharing OER (while still keeping it remixable) by making it possible to publish to institutional repositories as well as other projects that provide structured publishing like Connexions, Siyavula, Booktype and Open University. The underlying editor is built collaboratively and intended for use by many projects.
In this presentation we will unveil our design for a new collaboratively created open-source editor for OER and show how it can be used to create, edit, and publish content to OER libraries. We will highlight the research principles that were used to guide the editing experience and also show how other projects have participated with us and how new projects can get involved and incorporate the editor and adapt it for their content. The talk will be mostly non-technical focusing on the how and why, with pointers to the technical meat for reference.

Load-balancing web servers Load-balancing web servers
The document discusses different approaches to load balancing web servers to address issues like scaling performance, tolerating failures, and rolling upgrades. It describes three common solutions: redirecting requests through a front-end server; using round-robin DNS to distribute requests; and employing an intelligent load balancer switch that can distribute requests based on server load and detect failures. Each approach has advantages and disadvantages related to ease of implementation, visibility to users, and ability to handle session state. The document also discusses network designs and protocols involved in load balancing, including TCP connection setup and teardown.
SQL Server 2008 Consolidation
The document compares three methods for consolidating SQL Server databases: 1) multiple databases on a single SQL Server instance, 2) a single database on multiple SQL Server instances, and 3) hypervisor-based virtualization. It finds that consolidating multiple databases onto a single instance has the lowest direct costs but reduces security and manageability. Using multiple instances improves security but has higher resource needs. Hypervisor-based virtualization maintains security while enabling features like high availability, but has higher licensing costs. The document aims to help decide which approach best balances these technical and business factors for a given environment.

Editor's Notes
- Benefits: radical change in internal/external communication, more content than on our “Website,” national recognition. We do things at this scale, but no one has to do that. Do as much or as little as you can or want to.
- I’ve had the title of Web Development Librarian in two libraries and for a number of years, and I’m not qualified for this job as written.
- If you’re here today, you are likely the kind of person who wants to do these things.
- Show them our live account.
- Good that it treats PHP as CGI (but don't delve into this) - just say that this is okay, but can ignore.
- Domains – Manage Domains – Edit
- That’s why installed all tools at the same time
- Show the install, upload some images, begin to tinker with customization, presentation Change theme using stock Carbon – install of OpticalPork is too shaky for “simple” demo Show a site where we've uploaded more images and done more work with the interface pretties: http://hundreddollarlibrary.org/images1
- With Joomla, we'll just do a basic install, then we can show the control panel for it, but we should bail at that point Show a customized joomla, with an imported template, a lot of the default detritus removed, and links to the blogs, wiki, and image galleries that we've shown in the previous steps (create some fictitious library to make it appear like a real site) 68portal is farm template
- Show examples: us (various URLs and looks), show ‘new’ Blue Rapids PL site(s)
