This article, entitled

Personal knowledge publishing and it’s uses in research

is an interesting little piece. Granted, I only skimmed it; mostly, I linked it here

because it is pertinent to this experiment (cs-ed.org), and because I’d like to

revisit it later.

Not a lot coming out of the Pete Depasquale corner of the world lately. I’m

assuming he’s a bit beat down supporting software, collecting data, and generally

not sleeping much. Writing real software for use by real users in a real,

who-knows-what-will-happen environment is not a task to be undertaken lightly.

I’m not fully into a grove, but I’m getting there. We’ve ordered ViaVoice for OSX,

and I’ll begin data transcription next week (I hope). I’ve pulled apart the paper

that Brooke and I wrote before I left, and we’re in the process now of looking at

how we can take half of what we talked about and turn it into an ITiCSE

submission. The material is there, so it shouldn’t be too hard.

A number of other things are up, I suppose. If anyone has any thoughts where I

can publish a paper regarding false advertising in mobile phone carriers,

and an accompanying Monte Carlo simulation of mobile phone usage, please let

me know.

Anyone care to drop a note to cs-ed.org and post an update?

PS – I have some stuff for managing links in the resources section,

if anyone is interested.

Greetings to Martha! Woo woo! (excited noise… doesn’t translate so well to the WWW)…

I have something working that will allow people to maintain different branches of the

‘online resources’ tree. Pete, if you’re still alive, I might ask you to alpha part of

it. Lisa, if you’re around, you can take part in the test as well.

In the meantime, I found a nice list of programming language papers off of

lambda the ultimate this morning.

In particular, the annotated bibliography of papers on the subject of

domain specific languages

looks like it might be useful for some directions I might be going.
