Must admit preferred Goren to Logan. He was ok but Goren character rang more true to me. Russ

To be honest there is one big issue with SB and that is the site allows students to upload profiles and pictures which he as owner had access to ALL. This gives me a big head start when grooming kids if he has got some information on it. Russ

Interesting we have had them in today and yesterday as well.. Russ

I will paraphrase here but... At BETT RM Chairman (But CEO has said same sort of comments) made a point to come a visit the stand and make some very positive comments about the 'geek' how important the site was both to schools and suppliers and ICT community at whole. You could take it as playing to owners but knowing both former CEO and current CEO and John the chairman I have never known them to play to the crowd when it comes to comments like that. They watch the words very carefully as they are held accountable for everything they say. Russ

To clarify what sophos incident was. Many moons ago a young member of staff managed to convince a young lawyer that they should send some stop notices to the 'geek' over some threads. Anyway once the bosses found out they played hell with said staff and withdrew the action. Maybe something to do with a Reg story. I still remember phone call from Graham at Sophos i was replying to an email over matter to rest of admins when call came through.

Yes has been for about 12 months (I am on the LA working party). Few things True Crypt is good for whole disk backup such as laptops. As a memory stick solution I think it is very complicated and staff would not use them. Hence why for memory sticks we are looking for better solution (hardware based encryption was idea until someone broke it so need to look into it bit more). But key issue here is finding a solution that works both on MACS and Windows. But anyway feel free to give me a buzz if want to discuss it more. Russ

Hi Chris has had to go home (family member got ill) so might be calling you tomorrow. Sorry about that. As for roles of mods and admins.. Mods: The edit/move and try and keep the forum running. Then every so often we ask them to do other things as stuff arises. As for Admins between us we run the org. Chris is edu-god and his word is final. He deals with Advertising and making the money decisions. Shaun does all the web stuff. Myself my role is marketing and PR Ric really is our events guy and our catch all guy (I am sure he will not mind being called that). So Ric as well as running our BETT presence he puts he hand to most of above roles. He often takes on forums for the admins so when things need admin to step in Ric will often do it. Then we all handle various 'relationships' with various suppliers (mainly were we already have high level contacts etc). So for example Chris deals with IDG, Ric deals with Navaho and I deal with RM (you get the idea). Hopefully that makes some kind of sense.

Birthday bot must of had a day off who signed his holiday form.. Have a good one.. Russ`

arr the one day do not want the site to go down and this happens... Conspiracy Theory anyone ..

I just realised I am the one who got to go clean the Toilet after this net party Russ

Shame can't even get llu sky here at moment.

Lol edugeek is the first result for that phrase now.

But then most sites that offer children social networks do make sure they are crb checked. @dos_box I agree the companies working on this hopefully will get an anwser soon.

Just had this sent through..

Yes after research (did not have time this morning as had to get phone working) the 3gs if reset iphone puts it into recovery mode and then you have to rerun the jailbreak software for it to boot normally. I would jailbreak it tonight if it wasn't for the fact my cable is on my desk at work Russ

Mines 3gs can you confirm what key combo is as seen several different ones.. Russ

You know what I did think about this the other day for various reasons. For obvious reasons Zerohour is bit busy at moment but I think might be merrit in looking at this. But as someone pointed out if we do Iphone then need blackberry etc etc. Russ

Jailbroke it last night managed to get into recovery mode loop this morning and nothing would get it out meant had to restore the phone. But +1 for the backup and restore process for Iphone not lost any data at all.. Russ

Right can we have all the phone numbers of our NZ and Auz friends (we will get you for not getting out of bed sat morning) Russ

I would try and track it down and then quite word asking them if it is possible if they could change it and offer your service this one time to help them if they need it. Russ

We as in we have an idea and before we start making it public we want to make sure it will work once we know we can support it and idea will work we will ask everyone else (inc the mods) for views... Russ

See our BETT video we talk with the real boss of Dell Russ

To be honest the job section will sort it out as we have plan for it but need to work out the fine detail Russ

Yes UK have a very odd but good education system based on sharing good practice but other countries like USA this less so. Based on research we have done lot of usa based visitors find the info and leave again.. Russ
