AutoCAD
Reading Jimmy, again, I find John Walker (the Autodesk founder not the Kiwi Athlete) has a blog. I knew of his website, as read The Autodesk File there a few years ago, but the blog is well worth a visit/subscription. I really like his book reviews as they cover
Adventure South
Why the new category: “Adventure South”? All posts in this category are related to trips I’ve done with a New Zealand adventure/cycle tour company: Adventure South. They operate mainly in the New Zealand’s South Island but also offers some tours which venture into the North Island. Over
Tablet PC
My Granny used slate tablets in school. It appears Tablet is back although these (PC’s) are convertibles. The evening news reported on Project Chaos – a trial of tablet and other new IT technology in NZ public schools. It looked like they were having fun while learning lots, a good
