I wonder if anything has more impact on our future than the questions we ask?
First, if we take it on more of a micro-level, imagine going into any random meeting. You will see things differently and have a different experience if you are asking “How can I get out of this meeting as quickly as [...]
Just returning from Denmark (land of some of my ancestors), where I presented a paper at the Aarhus School of Business - “Knowledge 360″ conference.
Perhaps the best thing about presenting my paper “Tools and Techniques for Online Cross-Cultural Knowledge Communication” - was that people in the audience knew about research and resources regarding cross-cultural innovation [...]
I just got my student reviews back from this last semester (see below), and so I thought it would be good to give you a follow-up report on the Web Analytics class (ISys 590R) I was asked to teach. I talked about my unique approach to teaching this semester in a previous blog entry.
In this [...]
Since I heard Seth Godin (a “guru” in online marketing) speak yesterday morning, I have not been able to stop thinking about some of his key messages. I’ll explain why I keep thinking about them at the end of this entry. I’m also very interested in your comments - what do you think are the [...]
I heard Lance Armstrong, the famous cyclist and cancer survivor, speak last night at the Omniture 2008 Summit. Through sharing his story of surviving cancer, his multiple Tour de France wins, and his hugely successful LiveStrong movement (already sold nearly 70 million of those yellow bands) - his main point was to encourage everyone in [...]
The use of web analytics is not just changing online business, but all of business. That is one of the key messages that Josh James, CEO of one of the fastest growing and most innovative companies, Omniture, shared this morning at the opening session of the 2008 Omniture Summit.
Six years ago there was 6 clients [...]
I believe that public school systems and universities are going to change significantly in the next 20-30 years. My thinking on these issues has been influenced by people like Lave and Wenger (Communities of Practice), Lev Vygotsky (Zone of Proximal Development), and George Siemens (Connectivism) - to name a few. As one of many changes, [...]
I presented yesterday at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University E-Learning Lab, and was impressed by what they are doing. Although it is not the only thing they do, I quite simply have not seen anyone as advanced in mobile learning functionality - and I think it is because they have a nice combination of (#1) [...]
I just participated in the e-Learning DevCon 2007 conference over the last three days, and here were some of the topics and practical skills that I learned more about:
How to create effective simulations for learning
What Web 2.0 things do and do not work for corporate “knowledge management” purposes
How to use video iPods for interactive learning [...]
Machines really are able to act more intelligently due recent discoveries in mathematics!
Paul Phillips’ presentation was fascinating to me as I could instantly see so many connections in how the application of decision automation can significantly improve multiple areas of e-business and online learning.
Much of the history of communication has been finding ways to do [...]
I like the description. Coz I have never been such a cold european country. But I love to see and visit Finland someday.
What a peaceful country. I saw many nature pics of Finland. But I knowledged more from this lovely, description of this US boy.
I’ve always imagined other African countries as more “traditional” Africa (I think of Kenya first), so it’s interesting to hear it’s one of the least “morphed”. And that it’s green and has spicy food…I’ve never really put Ethiopia on my list of places I wanted to travel to until now.
There’s been much criticism about the WSS protests “not being very Buddhist!”
Recently we see in the news (see link below) Tens of thousands of South Korean Buddhists peacefully demonstrating waving placards and fists, chanting
“Oppose religious discrimination” against their country’s leader and government.
Are they not Buddhists too?

Hi Adriana,
I do not know anything about that. Does anyone else?
I believe the company is based in Germany, but my only guess is that being technically in Mauritius offers a certain favorable tax status?
But I really don’t know. Is anyone wiser on this issue?
Clint,
I really appreciate that you started this blog. I have been contacted by them and also wondered about their legitimacy. My advisor says that the company is in Mauritius. Do you know anything about that?
