Australian IT - Sims bring uni courses to life (Jennifer Foreshew, OCTOBER 18, 2005)

And here's the Australian IT article (broken link, was originally australianit.news.com.au/articles/0,7204,16946895%5E15334%5E%5Enbv%5E15306%2D15317,00.html).

And here's the demo site.

A simulating workplace

The simulation software that Roger, Michael, Shane, Neil, Mark and Courtney created has got a mention in this month's UniSANews.

The word on the street is that there might be an article in tomorrow's IT section of The Australian newspaper too.

Courtney finished up here on Friday, and will shortly be spending 12 months with her husband as a volunteer in Indonesia.

RSS for PocketPC with Firefox

I use Firefox (Broken link, was originally www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=affiliates&id=91129&t=89) as my preferred browser, and at the moment I've found the Live Bookmarks feature the easiest way to track various RSS feeds of interest to me.

At a recent Adelaide SQL User Group meeting, Rob showed me an application running on his PPC device that I think was Egress. It made me think what I really want is an application that would run on my iPAQ that would grab the latest stuff from my RSS, but use the Live Bookmarks in my Firefox profile as the source of what RSS feeds to get.

Now I only have to build the thing :-)
