Despite formal education's best efforts I still find geography enjoyable which is probably why I've spent way too much playing with Google Earth. Nystrom a Herff Jones company has recently released StrataLogica to harness this and combine it with their own map content for use in the classroom. StrataLogica is an online version of Nystrom's wall map and globe content.

Is the iPad *really* the future of the web? Some people seem to be eating up the hype, and hanging onto every statement that Apple makes, but I'm not convinced. There are a lot of features of the iPad that leave me scratching my head, but in this post I want to talk about the lack of plug-in support.

At my office we are currently standardizing our interviewing process. This got me thinking about the subject in general, and so I thought I would share some things that I've learned over the years from being on both sides of the interviewing table. In my last article I detailed some tips on how to interview from a candidate's point of view. Here I will continue that thread, sharing more tips on how to interview as a candidate.
