Home is an essential part of us all. The houses, flats, tower blocks and estates that we live in are extensions of our everyday lives. They are practical places - buildings for us to eat or sleep in - yet for most, home is the most expensive thing that we ever buy, a complex thing offering a lifetime of investment and preoccupation.

Robin Good: Curatr, an elearning platform built upon the idea of discovery through the curation and sense-making of existing information, has just released an updated version of its platform which you can check out here: http://www.curatr.co.uk/index2.php
Live demo: http://www.curatr.co.uk/index2.php?view=demo
Curatr allows professional trainers, experts, and teachers, as much as students to organize and curate information for the purpose of learning.
What I like very much is the Curatr promotional video, which says lots of true things about education and about the way we should carry it out in the future. The next-button-robot approach to information memorization needs to be replaced with a new approach: learning to understand how learners construct knowledge.
Curatr is about the construction of the scaffolding that allows people to learn and to find the resources that should help them best learn what they are interested into.
Promising. Insightful. 8/10

Harness leading-edge technology for optimum business efficiency and reduced operational costs
In today’s digital marketplace, enterprises across the globe harness leading-edge technology for optimum business efficiency and reduced operational costs. The huge potentials of online markets are best realised through effective consumer portals which successfully combine information, community and commerce with the reliability and security required for e-business operations. According to IBM, portals are next-generation desktops, delivering e-business applications over the Web to all kinds of client devices in order to form a unified, collaborative workplace. It is, therefore, natural that businesses around the world leverage the power of the Internet to launch B2B (business to business) & B2C (business to consumer) portals for increased revenues and improved relationships with partners, vendors and customers. While B2B is primarily concerned with supply chain management and plays a vital role in connecting manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors, B2C sites sell products, services and information directly to end-users. |
