Yep, the book "Presentation Zen" says pretty much all there is to know about this approach. And while it is not a silver bullet, it's great! I also find not using a power point at all easier too. You can connect more easily with the audienc

You need to install .NET version 1.1, not 2, 3, or 4. The other major versions of .NET are separate and are for applications that target the other version of .NET. What's nice about version 1.1 is that it can run on old computers that are o

I also bougth collective intelligence in action and algorithms of the intelligent web. Both are books from manning.com. I love those 2 books more than programming collective intelligence because I find them more complete and as easy to read

I don't buy this. Maybe in the future in 20-30 years, but definetly not now. I got no idea where the prototype might be, but I don't see how you can build a robot that writes articles without ambient intelligence... journalism cases are rea

No, it's not futile! Finding ways to get good information fast with the data explosion is one of the challenges we face in computer science. Anyway, the good folks at GATE are building a great set of tools for NLP for several years. The too

Good point, I didn't tough of that! Thanks. I emailed them 2 days ago regarding their UI library / SDK (they only name it)... I wonder when I'll get an answer.

Yep, that's why I am buying an Exo PC Slate! http://www.exopc.com/en/exopc-slate.php It works on Windows 7 with 3 USB ports. It's the same price as the ipad, but it's more geared as an netbook killer than a bigger iPod touch. They waited

Take both paths! You can have a great relationship AND build your dreams at once! Did Bill Gates divorced with his wife? No. Did it prevent him from pursuing his dreams wth microsoft and his foundation to help poverty?
