Upgrade to WordPress 1.0

Well, it’s been quite easy.

and done.

Now it’s time to customize – once again :( – home page, CSS and some other layouts such as admin and so.

Anyway, thanks to WordPress team for such a thing!

Email Lists and Message Boards- Where’s the Middle Ground?

I guess I should visit my Blogroll saved items more often – plenty unread stuff there!

(via Knowledge Jolt With Jack)

Lee Lefeever writes about Email Lists vs. Message Boards.

In my opinion, the middle ground lays on an intranet where e-mail and message boards are just a part of a whole thing where everything is embedded in a coherent virtual community system.

I think that having a “place” is quite a must if there’s even a slight commitment with knowledge management and/or some kind of filing effort with all the information running through the community.

Some intranets allow the user be notified of new posts and even let the user customize some views so he can see all board updates at a glance when entering the intranet (and before reaching his mail inbox).

All in all, the matter surely is having your communication/community applications in a suite the same way you like to have your office applications (word processor, spreadsheet, etc. at MS Office) or your web design applications (code editor, photo editor, etc. at Macromedia Dreamweaver+Fireworks) or, even better, as just one application.

Inter-American Development Bank e-Courses

Via the Development Gateway I find these Inter-American Development Bank e-Courses on “The Logical Framework for Project Design” and “Monitoring and Evaluation of Projects” .

Sorry, too lazy to comment the link: I just came back from some strange mix of holidays and ill-in-bed days and being back to work is still a sort of challenge ;)

Thus, I’ll sit and quote John Daly’s description. Sorry pals.

“The Logical Framework for Project Design” and “Monitoring and Evaluation of Projects” are offered online, free, by the InterAmerican Development Bank. Certificates of Completion are offered to those who successfully complete the courses. An online discussion forum is available (in Spanish) to those taking the courses. It appears that these courses were developed in 2002, and Certificates were awarded as recently as two weeks ago.
