Between October of 2012 and February of 2013, I was part of the University of California Berkeley’s tech repair window staff. The Apple certifications had been earned, the time had been put in, and it was time to see if a geek who pretty much lived to tinker with Macs could help the university’s 38,000-plus student body with whatever disasters happened—especially at the 11th hour with everything due at once. The tech window is gone now (swept away as part of a mandatory building renovation and moved to a smaller store across the street), but over the course of more than 200 repairs for the wearied and panicked tides that crashed the tech shop window, I figured that there were three incredibly common Mac problems that you can easily fix yourself or at least limit the damage. Click…click…click The lesson to be learned here: Invest in a few items that your computer will need to protect your data and back up. Take care
Online learning environments: the basics There are two big categories of e-learning technologies that affect your first decision of how to deliver your learning programme: Learning Management Systems (LMSs), also called Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs), and toolkits / individual tools. How you proceed with your learning design and delivery will need to take into account which direction you want to go. The main factors involved in this choice are: Your approach to learning in the circumstances at hand (philosophy): what kind of learning experience do you want your learners to have?Your team’s technical expertise (implementation and support): can you handle technical development, problem-solving and coding, or do you need an “out of the box” solution with external support? Learning Management Systems (LMSs) LMSs are self-contained environments that sit behind an authentication system (login/password) with a range of tools and features built into a single primary interface. Proprietary Open source In-house development Pick ‘n’ mix

Big Data Is As Misunderstood As Twitter Was Back In 2008 Boonsri Dickinson, Business Insider In 2008, when Howard Lindzon started StockTwits, no one knew what Twitter was. Obviously, that has changed. Now that Twitter is more of a mainstream communication channel, Lindzon has figured out the secret to getting past all the noise on Twitter. By using human curation, StockTwits can serve up relevant social media content to major players like MSN Money. Lindzon said there are three key aspects that have helped solve the spammy nature of Twitter: StockTwits uses humans to curate social media contentThe technology filters out penny stock mentionsIt has house rules that people must follow or else they get kicked out of it.

20 ways to customise your Mac desktop Apple has done a great job making sure Mac OS X is aesthetically pleasing with its Aqua theme, exciting desktop images and clear, eye-catching icons. Yet out of the box, your Mac looks like every other. To really make it your own, you must personalise it, tailoring it to suit yourself on both a practical and cosmetic level. 1.

Now highlight the file or folder you wish to 'badge' with the new icon, and press Command+I again. To remove it, open the Info window and highlight the icon, and press Delete to reset it to the default icon for that file or folder. Changing system icons such as the Trash and Finder's Dock icon is a trickier proposition. 2. Folder Icon X makes it really easy to badge your folders with icons or images. Iconfactory's IconBuilder is a plug-in for Adobe Photoshop or Fireworks. 3. 4. 5. To remove, type: 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

5 Quick Fixes to Common Mac Problems As Mac users we’re used to not having to frequently troubleshoot our computer problems. However, that doesn’t mean that our Macs don’t misbehave from time to time. In this first of a two-part tutorial, we’ll detail five quick fixes to your Mac’s most common problems. What’s a quick fix? It’s exactly what it sounds like - it’s something that is very simple (usually a key combination or quick command) that is the first attempt by technicians to repair a problem quickly and simply. “Other things being equal, a simpler explanation is better than a more complex one” - Ockham’s Razor Let’s take a look at an example of a quick fix and assume we have a MacBook Pro that isn’t able to open any web pages.
