There’s not much happening at the moment.

I’m busy at work as usual. I had a particularly frustrating day today.

I’ve recently added a real simple counter to the bottom of my page but I’ve been looking at others including Jellycounter and Extreme Tracking. I also added a recent referrers script from Stephen’s Web.

I’m still thinking about an add-on for B2 I want to write. No information yet, I don’t want to spoil the surprise 😉

And that’s it really. Just writing this, however, has made me want to get organised. So maybe things will develop…

After waking up very, very late this morning, I’m off to bed now. I don’t want to sleep through three alarms again!

I’ve just read a truly excellent article by Stephen Downes entitled “Five Choices: Or, Why I Won’t Give Dave Pell Twelve Dollars” about why Content does not and will not sell on the net. He says:

Content didn’t sell on the net, and it won’t sell on the net, because the premises of the rejoinder are false: people sometimes don’t deserve to be paid, even if they work hard, because the market doesn’t work that way. And people will produce content, even if they don’t get paid for the content. The online evidence for this is overwhelming, as two billion free web pages will attest.

This is a really interesting read. Stephen runs a web site that is “intended to represent the next generation of learning”. I’m very interested in education, including online learning, I’ll have to keep an eye on Stepehen’s Web
