Like he mentions in the updates, while providing JSON is probably more fitting technology for the now, there is a world of RSS and […]

This on the day after the Microlearning Conference in the same city, which takes place on June 23rd and 24th. It certainly looks like a great conference also from a KM and social software viewpoint. Are you going to […]
    • Blognomics, a much needed event Finally the Netherlands has seen it’s first symposium on the use of weblogs. Drawing a mixed crowd of journalists, politicians, business people and of course bloggers, Blognomics was a succes to my eyes. Have a look at Technorati for impressions, in words, video and pictures. I will upload my pictures to Flickr. I have written […]

Tijdens de TINE afgelopen week in de Rai vond het middagsymposium Blognomics plaats.
