If you were interviewing someone for a position with your company and they admitted that they didn't know anything about the new trends and innovations taking place in their field, what would you think? Likely, what you would think is "next candidate, please." In today's business world, job-seekers are expected to stay current with the happenings taking place in their area of interest. There was a time when those happenings were very much job-specific and ...Shared by Aaron (58) ani625 (85) Åsa Johan (5) asblogger (35) Bala (3) Baldgeekinmd (25) Ben Shoemate (23) Ben Turner (54) bhc3 (54) Bob Hazlett (10) Bobbi Newman (16) caozenghui (29) carterfsmith (7) Cathryn Hrudicka (14) Corvida (73) Creeva (41) Dan (10) DaveP (11) David (9) David (6) Dennis Howlett (13) Doron T.

Friday Funny: Demetri Martin's Flipcharts and Indexed (8)

Common Craft - Explanations In Plain English - (70) permalink
Thanks to Mary for making me crack up at this flipchart-based comedy skit by Demetri Martin, a young New York comic that also appears on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Hope it makes your Friday a little funnier. On a similar theme, you might also be interested in Jessica Hagy's Indexed - a blog that makes clever use of index cards.

Utdanningsforbundet vil ikke dele... (1)

JonblOGG (2) permalink
På bloggen til NDLA kan en lese at Utdanningsforbundet aktivt fraråder sine medlemmer å dele eget innhold på den planlagte delingsarenaen i NDLA. Det som står nedenfor er i stor grad det samme som det som kan leses i bloggposten, men det er såpass oppsiktsvekkende at jeg gjengir mye av det her.Det nevnte brevet tar punktvis for seg de ulike problemstillingene som legges til grunn for denne frarådingen: Det er uheldig at fylkeskommunene som har ...Shared by MagnusEnger (27)Contribute comment -
Social Networking for Books: One Ring, or Loosely Joined? (43)

O'Reilly Radar - Insight, analysis, and research about emerging technologies (486) permalink
I have to confess that one of the social networking tools I find most valuable is Goodreads. (It's a close second to Twitter, and way ahead of Facebook, Friendfeed, or Dopplr.) Unlike twitter, where I follow hundreds of people (possible because of twitter's minimalism) and am followed by thousands, on Goodreads, I follow and am followed by a small circle of friends and people whose taste in books I trust.

- Eric said: I like the people behind the LibraryThing company and subscribe to their business blog, but I don't use their service. Shelfari is a rip off of LibraryThing, but now has the weight of Amazon behind so it becomes more interesting to me. I buy most of my books from Chapters Indigo and I've poked around the community portion of their website, but wasn't impressed. What I do use is the Visual Bookshelf application in Facebook and I wish Chapters and others would stop trying to re-invent social components and plug-in to the Facebook platform.
