Indeed, he is correct. Checking the source material is easier these days and the poll finding are published right on the Zogby website.
The Survey, dated Feb. 27, 2007 also says: (the survey) “finds two-thirds (of Americans surveyed) dissatisfied with the quality of journalism”.
Also, according to the same survey: “Web sites are regarded as a more important source of news and information than traditional media outlets”
Since this is a rapidly growing effect, it seems reasonable to conclude that the same trend is even more likely to be pronounced within the technology communities where use of Web & Net, in general, is more highly concentrated. Thus not only news and education resources are affected, but also the very way business-to-business interactions and skill honing are practiced.
I wonder how long it will be before Virtual Conferences and Expos overtake physical ones?
Now we can add written notes onto a PC without using a Tablet PC! Las Vegas NV, USA — The DigiMemo L2 is a stand-alone device with storage capability that digitally captures and stores everything you write or draw with ink on ordinary paper, without the use of computer and special paper.
Then you can easily view, edit, organize and share your handwritten class notes in Windows.
When connected to a PC, the DigiMemo L2 offers an on-line writing function which can instantly synchronize your writing on the paper with the digital page in its software in Windows. It also is a USB tablet device in Windows.
This video guides the student through the proper techniques for measuring resistance with a multimeter. It is a continuation of Part 3 which begins the topic of resistance measurement.
The Measure Activity on One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) is a tool on the XO, the $200 computer now in production, that allows kids to indulge in “learning by doing”.
It provides an interface for the kids to connect with the physical world and an opportunity to view and understand through a visual and statistical representation of the physical phenomena.
Using the Measure Activity on the XO, one can:
Connect sensors (light, heat, magnetic field etc) and view their signal. Thus it is possible to view and study physical phenomena
Input voltages and signals into the XO laptop and use it as an oscilloscope and
Log data at a specified interval and store and retrieve waveforms
Home Energy Performance with the EnergySmart Home Scale
US DOE — The E-Scale is an easy-to-understand metric that helps home buyers and home owners evaluate how many “miles per gallon” their homes get - helping them to make smart energy decisions when purchasing or updating a home. It is designed to provide clear, objective answers to basic questions:
* How much energy does this home consume?
* How does it compare to a code home?
* How close is it to the “ultimate” - a net zero energy home?
The E-Scale is placed by participating builders on the power panels of homes that meet the Builders Challenge goal of a 70 or better on the E-Scale, showing energy performance achieved for each individual home or model. Participating builders and partner organizations may also:
* Co-brand the E-Scale label with their logos and program or product names
* Augment the rating with estimates of annual energy dollar savings - which can help homebuyers get better mortgage terms
* Include estimates of carbon dioxide reductions associated with the energy savings.
The E-Scale is based on the well-established Home Energy Rating System (HERS) index, developed by RESNET, the Residential Energy Services Network.
