alrite im new to this just finished uni now studying BSc computing and electronics,

Last night, 111 people (mostly kids, a couple of members of staff) took part in the 2008 'Thrill the World' record attempt for the largest number of simultaneous people dancing the 'Thriller' dance.

Overall, there were more then 3,700 people dancing around the world, in the USA, Canada, Germany, Ireland and many more.

If anyone is interested in seeing our school do the dance, take a look at the youtube video:

I've been thinking lately about school phone usage and wondering why we aren't moving to VOIP in schools.

For example, at the moment, if we wish to call our LEA or a local school, we have to dial out via a PSTN line and pay a call charge. Whilst at the same time we have a perfectly usable high quality fibre-optic internet connection. Surely introducing a VOIP phone system across schools would be fairly simple - I could outfit all our local schools with suitable Asterisk based systems...

They say thing come in 3s but at the moment its not stopping. After a hard week of updating joomla package and testing it I recived some emails asking me to pay to install the package that sysman created and I updated and wanted £500 to do it. As well as that got a couple of other emails telling me that I can use there package for comurtial gain and I needed to remove them I know feel like crap. Ok so thats that sorted next to relax at home with laptop (brand new) and oh dear what a bugger the harddrive...

I have been feeling better and am getting back to my old self as far as possable. I hope to have new joomla package posted soon and have some nice new packages. Also looking into a joomla moodle so they are one to go alongeside the edugeek moodle package. I have just got to talk to the project manage but I wonder how much time it will take.
