Hmmm Yet another Distro. I could see only few packages for education. All others are same as a generic distro. Why not use QImo, FreeDUC, Edubuntu and others instead of this distro?

[ilugd] Free ONLINE Drupal Training commencing August 10, 2010
NoParrots.com free Drupal trainings have been so far restricted to Delhi NCR, India. They have been a great success. Our meetup group at http://drupal-delhi.noparrots.com is already 100+ members large and we have had 6 meetups so far. During these 6 meetings we have introduced Drupal fundamentals. Its been a fun and humbling experience to have so many of you come to my training center in Gurgaon every Sunday afternoon and listen to me teach you a little bit of Drupal But I've received calls and emails from people all the way from Kerala and Bangalore to know if I offer online training. Starting from today, the answer is Yes! I'm happy to announce that starting from August 10th, 2010 (Tuesday) we'll have free ONLINE Drupal training. Every week I intend to teach Drupal fundamentals from 9 pm - 11 pm (Indian Standard Time). We'll try to keep it on Tuesdays. For details please keep visiting http://www.noparrots.com and http://drupal-delhi.noparrots.com *If you have a broadband internet connection and an internet browser you should be able to listen to my lectures and see me share my computer screen as I demonstrate how to build websites in Drupal.* As usual, I'll try to keep each session as independent as possible to the previous one. You don't need any special programming knowledge to understand Drupal. *How can you join Free Online Drupal Training?* - Register yourself at http://drupal-delhi.noparrots.com - Say that you will be joining a particular meeting by RSVPing Yes on the meeting date - At the meeting time, join us at https://my.dimdim.com/learn_drupal (note that the URL https and not http) *What is Drupal?* * * *Drupal is a CMS (Content Management System), similar to Wordpress or Joomla that allows you to rapidly build sophisticated and great looking websites. The US President's website http://www.whitehouse.gov is a great example of a website made in Drupal. Drupal itself is build on the PHP language (like Facebook). * ___ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
[ilugd] [OT][Announcement] web3.0 mailing list
Dear All, Greetings .!. Do you have awareness about web3.0 ? The Semantic Web is a web of data. There is lots of data we all use every day, and it is not part of the web. I can see my bank statements on the web, and my photographs, and I can see my appointments in a calendar. But can I see my photos in a calendar to see what I was doing when I took them? Can I see bank statement lines in a calendar? Why not? Because we don't have a web of data. Because data is controlled by applications, and each application keeps it to itself. Humans are capable of using the Web to carry out tasks such as finding the Irish word for directory, reserving a library book, and searching for a low price for a DVD. However, one computer cannot accomplish all of these tasks without human direction, because web pages are designed to be read by people, not machines. The semantic web is a vision of information that is understandable by computers, so computers can perform more of the tedious work involved in finding, combining, and acting upon information on the web. We are going to make web3.0 with the basics of semantic web. Let us discuss about web3.0 in this mailing list. Welcomes you to real data understandable by computer as data not as text ! - To join in the web3 mailing list, subscribe here http://www.freelists.org/list/web3 What is the Semantic Web? Where Web 2.0 is focused on people, the Semantic Web is focused on machines. The Web requires a human operator, using computer systems to perform the tasks required to find, search and aggregate its information. It's impossible for a computer to do these tasks without human guidance because Web pages are specifically designed for human readers. The Semantic Web is a project that aims to change that by presenting Web page data in such a way that it is understood by computers, enabling machines to do the searching, aggregating and combining of the Web's information — without a human operator. :-) More info about semantic web : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Web http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/ http://www.webopedia.com/DidYouKnow/Internet/2007/Semantic_Web.asp Thank you. -- Regards, Arulalan.T Kanchi Linux User Group Rocks ! http://kanchilug.wordpress.com My Experiments In Linux are here http://tuxcoder.wordpress.com One Day One Cmd via sms http://1day1cmd.wordpress.com ___ Ilugd mailing list Ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
Re: [ilugd] [X-Post] Guest account in Ubuntu 10.04
Hi Kartik, Its easy man : following can be a good solution : - make a script which will only execute if the current logged in user is guest and will clear the directories or whatever u want. then put its entry in /etc/bashrc, you need to make sure that script is executable by guest user or you can apply SUID on it in case if you want i can prepare one for you.
