I have subscribed to this Blog in Oremi (Swansea University’s implementation of Elgg) so this entry should appear both in my RSS aggregator (called Resources in Oremi) and also as a Blog entry inside my Oremi space. I have similarly added by del.icio.us bookmarks to the same feature, so if I bookmark this item, it should also appear as a Blog entry inside Oremi. I have been less than impressed by Oremi’s blogging and wiki features so far....
I’m indebted to Brady Forrest on O’Reilly Radar for the link to this cool video by Lee & Sachi LeFever that explains how Wiki works. There’s also a companion video RSS in Plain English that I haven’t embedded here, but which is just as good.

I’ve got a coffee in my hand and I’m off to listen to them both. [p.s. I picked up the [link](http://intertwingly.net/blog/2007/05/23/Link-Bait) to Jon’s piece from Sam Ruby’s [blog](http://intertwingly....
Today, my colleague Dr John Mason and I interviewed one of my MEng students who has submitted a research dissertation on Free and Open Source Software in Engineering Education. Just prior to the interview, John showed me this site which he had picked up by Googling “open source education brazil“. It wasn’t picked up by my student in his literature review (which to be fair was directed to the more “professional” search engines on-line like IET Inspec and IEEE XPlore) but it looks like a great resource and I shall need to add it to my list of sites worthy of a longer look....
