The Challenges of Electronic Reading
Last week, I spent a fair amount of time stumbling through the various available methods for reading on a computer. Our current method is that of the .pdf. Well, if your are at all like me, you hate reading a .pdf soft-copy. I always end up printing the damn thing, so I can sit down and mark it up. This option obviously won’t work in Nepali schools, because they don’t have access to a printer, and even if they did, it would not be cost effective.

One Heckuva Nice Guy
Bernie Innocenti arrived in Kathmandu a week ago and he has changed the OLE Nepal office in so many ways. For one thing, this guy knows linux inside and out, in so much more depth than anyone else on the team. He has already made a big impact on the sysadmin team by showing us how to set up LVM RAID 1 for our E-Pustakalaya (E-Library). He is teaching us about Sugar and helping us optimize our activity performance.

Yesterday I decided to share with the team an overview of a Wired and Wireless Network and how certain loopholes in them can pose a threat to our data and confidential information. Due to lack of time I could not cover, “How to secure the network from such vulnerabilities” Which I hope to cover another time along with Web Server Security.
