What if we build eLearning in such a way that after the initial launch of the eLearning is completed, the conceptual components can be extracted, flipped and re-used in a variety of learning and performance management scenarios?
Micro-learning is the new rage in the Learning and Development and E-learning world. Although the concept is not new, the widespread adoption of smartphones coupled with the rapidly decreasing attention span of learners has led to an increase in demand for short, crisp and just in time learning nuggets.
The success of a custom eLearning project is frequently attributed to good instructional design, programming, and graphic design. However, in our experience, a critical component in the success of an eLearning project is the availability and support of Subject Matter Experts (SMEs)
Our experience of developing over 50 eLearning projects, over the past three years, has shown that projects that have consistent SME support almost always meet milestones, scope, and budget. Over the years, we have developed a few best practices to manage SME expectations and keep them engaged through the eLearning project lifecycle.
In this three part series we will explore how an eLearning development tool like Articulate Storyline can be used to create a mathematical model based, complex business simulation game.
Music moves us in ways few other things can. It helps us to tune out the constant chatter of thoughts, emotions and feelings and it helps us to tune into the present moment. This is why music can be a very powerful instructional tool.
This is a free case study that can be used during workshops on Customer Service or Customer Focus. The case study focuses on establishing the importance of measuring both soft and hard factors in customer service.
A customer wants to move a box across a 4×4 minefield. The minefield is at a distance from where the customer is located hence, the customer has hired a chain of Messengers and an Executor to carry out this task. However, the Messengers have no idea which squares of the minefield have mines; only the customer has that information. Moreover, the Messengers cannot talk to each other and must only use sign language to transmit messages to the Executor at the end of the chain. The challenge is to safely move the box across the minefield without stepping on a mine.
Tied Up is a simple but fun activity that is played in pairs. The game requires two people, who have their one hand tied together, to build a house of cards. The activity looks simple, but, can be quite challenging to accomplish. Participants needs to display good teamwork, understanding, compatibility and communication to accomplish the task.
As I gleamed and read through the volumes of work dedicated to the Rubik's Cube, I realized that some very simple mechanisms may be at play behind making the Rubik's Cube such an enigmatic puzzle. Once I had worked through my list, I had a sudden insight that most of these mechanics/features also apply to the design of great learning.
This is the presentation from our Webinar conducted on 12th, January, 2013. In this presentation, we compare 3 business simulation games. This is a pre-workshop Webinar leading up to the 3-day workshop and Hackathon on Designing Business Games and Simulations for Learning Epiphany Learning | Comparing 3 Business Simulations from Epiphany Learning To watch the video of the webinar visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GvEWAYjDSMs#!

We first watched this just after April Fools Day, and laughed and laughed. Went to bed, and the next day it was nowhere to be found (see the comments for this video here). Was it taken down because it was laughing at dangerous behavior, or was it down to copyright issues. You decide.

Witold Wojtkiewicz
A procession of children (Children surprised the storm)
oil on canvas
92 x 50 cm
National Museum, Warsaw, Poland
Witold Wojtkiewicz (1879-1909) was a Polish neoromantic painter, draughtsman and illustrator, exceptional artist of the "Young Poland" movement, representative of early Expressionism and Symbolism, active in Warsaw and Krakow. Within the Young Poland movement, he was distinguishable for the originality of his oeuvre. Many also view him as a precursor of the various trends that appeared in Polish art of the 20th century - from grotesque art colored by irony through Expressionism that penetrated the human soul and Surrealism that examined the subconscious using a refined aestheticism.
The early Expressionistic tendencies visible in his drawings were also shaped by his fascination for the art of Francisco Goya. Gradually his works evolved towards a poetic that was both lyrical and grotesque, one unique in Poland and having no equivalent in world art. Another realm that he continued to explore in his art with increasing depth was the world of children. He intensified the fictional dimension of these fairy-tale scenes by inserting out of the ordinary objects into their rural settings.
He started his education at the Warsaw School of Drawing in 1898 and continued at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow. He was suffering from a serious heart condition at birth in 1879. He grew up in a large family where his father was a bank employee. He died of a heart attack at the age of thirty. He was located at the crossroads of symbolism and expressionism. He also worked as an illustrator and postcard designer.

Medicare in Mexico? Experts discuss future of long-term care for Americans south of border
Healthcare and foreign policy experts met Wednesday at the Institute of the Americas to discuss the growing role the Mexican healthcare system is playing in serving the long-term care needs of Americans.
A soon-to-be-released report from the National City, CA-based International Community Foundation, a charity, finds a growing need for long-term care and assisted living facilities that serve Americans in Mexico. There are plenty of opportunities for active retirement in Mexico, but the country is not a very good spot to age in place, NCICF president Richard Kiy noted at the meeting, according to the San Diego Union Tribune. Healthcare costs in Mexico are a fraction of the cost of U.S. healthcare, but standards and certification are still an issue.
One major topic of discussion was the possibility of reimbursing Mexican facilities through the Medicare system, reports the San Diego Union Tribune. For the U.S. to even consider that step, Mexican facilities would have to be certified at the same standard as American facilities. Mexico's president, Felipe Calderón, is expected to broach the subject when he meets with President Obama next month, but experts at Wednesday's meeting did not foresee any immediate changes to the system, according to the Union Tribune.

I went shopping this weekend and fell in love with this patchwork suede tote from River Island. Roomy, chic and ideal for a new work bag – I love it.
I bought a new cream skirt at the same time too (I can't resist a sale) and it's perfect for a hot summer's day outfit – plus, it'll match well with the new bag too.
Hope you all had lovely weekends!

For the second year in a row, we're happy to announce the hatching of a new tufted puffin chick (or, to use what may be the cutest word ever, puffling). The chick hatched on Saturday, August 1 and, along with its parents, is being closely monitored by Aquarium biologists.
The puffling will remain out of view in its burrow for the time being, with both parents delivering fish for their offspring to eat over the next several weeks. If all continues to go well with the chick's growth and development, visitors to the Aquarium may be able to see the adult-sized chick starting to fledge, or venture outside of the burrow, when it's approximately 45 days old.
We'll be sure to post more info and pictures as they become available. In the meantime, read our blog posts about the two pufflings that hatched last summer:
- A new tufted puffin chick at the Seattle Aquarium
- Welcome puffin baby #2!
- Almost fledging time for our tufted puffin chicks!
Fun fact: Tufted puffins can hold up to 20 small, slippery fish in their bills at a time! For cool facts, check out the tufted puffin fact sheet on our website.

Support Nancy Powers - Pancake Playathon Fundraiser
Team Member: Annette Demeyer
EVENT DATE Jun 28, 2014
Lisa DeMeyer wrote -
Nancy Powers is a gifted and dedicated violin teacher. She has nurtured, challenged and cheered on hundreds of students in her 30+ years of teaching. Currently, Nancy works with young musicians in the Saginaw Township Schools Elementary Strings program, Saginaw Bay Symphony Orchestra Youth Strings Program, Mount Pleasant High School Orchestra, and Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp, all while maintaining her own private Suzuki violin studio.
In May, Nancy was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer and began treatment shortly after. Though insurance pays a large percentage of the medical bills, the costs of treatment are still high. And because she has taken temporary leave from all teaching posts, she will not have the same income she usually relies on.
To support Nancy, the friends of the Suzuki Studio of Mt. Pleasant are hosting a "Pancake Playathon" fundraiser in her honor. On June 28, 2014, friends and family will gather for a pancake brunch while her students play through their entire repertoire! Please consider making a pledge to a playathon participant, which will motivate Nancy's students practice, progress, and give them an important role in our fundraiser.
All proceeds from the event will go to Nancy to help cover her living and medical expenses. Her goal is to stay positive, heal quickly, and be at her daughter's wedding in August!

Summary of Monument
Legacy Record - This information may be included in the List Entry Details.
Reasons for Designation
Bowl barrows, the most numerous form of round barrow, are funerary monuments
dating from the Late Neolithic period to the Late Bronze Age, with most
examples belonging to the period 2400-1500 BC. They were constructed as
earthen or rubble mounds, sometimes ditched, which covered single or multiple
burials. They occur either in isolation or grouped as cemeteries and often
acted as a focus for burials in later periods. Often superficially similar,
although differing widely in size, they exhibit regional variations in form
and a diversity of burial practices. There are over 10,000 surviving bowl
barrows recorded nationally (many more have already been destroyed), occurring
across most of lowland Britain. Often occupying prominent locations, they are
a major historic element in the modern landscape and their considerable
variation of form and longevity as a monument type provide important
information on the diversity of beliefs and social organisations amongst early
prehistoric communities. They are particularly representative of their period
and a substantial proportion of surviving examples are considered worthy of
Although the barrow has been partially excavated and altered by agricultural activity, below ground remains of the encircling ditch and grave pits will survive. It will also contribute to an understanding of the wider group of which it is a member.
Legacy Record - This information may be included in the List Entry Details.
The monument is a Bronze Age round barrow, part of a wider group in this area
of the Yorkshire Wolds. Although the barrow has been levelled by ploughing its
enclosing circular ditch, excavated during the construction of the monument,
is clearly visible on aerial photographs. The ditch has become in-filled, but
survives as a buried feature 40m in diameter.
The 19th century antiquarian J R Mortimer partially excavated the barrow mound
in 1865.
He found a central grave which contained the skeleton of an adolescent
accompanied by a flint knife, quartz pebbles, a deposit of ochre, and a small
food vessel. The skeleton's lower jaw had been removed and replaced by the
pot. A secondary crouched burial and various human and animal bones scattered
throughout the mound were found.
MAP EXTRACT The site of the monument is shown on the attached map extract. It includes a 2 metre boundary around the archaeological features, considered to be essential for the monument's support and preservation.

Britain vowed Tuesday to double its investment in cyber-security to counter threats including from the Islamic State group following the Paris attacks claimed by IS which killed at least 129 people. Prime Minister David Cameron also announced he would make a fresh effort to build support for Britain to join air strikes on Syria, saying there was now a "compelling case" for doing so. Britain has so far stayed out of the strikes on IS group targets in Syria due to opposition from parliament.

ISLAMABAD – State Minister Anusha Rahman has provided Universal Services Fund (USF) amounting to Rs. 44 billion to Finance Minister Ishaq Dar 'illegally', claimed Online News Agency on Wednesday.
Anusha Rahman, State Minister for Information Technology and Telecommunication, had not obtained permission from the USF Board before providing this, due to which high-level inquiry is likely to be launched against her.
The establishment of USF was aimed at extending telephone facilities to remote areas of the country but Anusha Rahman provided these funds to Ishaq Dar soon after assuming the office as the state minister. As a result, modern infrastructure could not be put in place in remote areas.
Sources told Online that the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) had received an application against financial malpractices by Anusha Rahman, adding that prompt and timely would be taken against her.
Sources further claim that Dar and Anusha Rahman are very close, as the latter gets all jobs done at the behest of Dar. She had provided Rs 44 billion to meet the budget deficit which was allocated for the welfare of poor people.
All the companies provide funds out of their income, at a prescribed rate, to Universal Services Centre (USC) while billions of rupees lie under the head of this fund. Anusha Rahman could be sent behind bars for facilitating the finance minister.-Online

On Saturday morning we woke up and went straight into…the line for the Duomo (the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore). We debated waiting until another day but decided to stick the line out. We waited over an hour, not horrible. It was cloudy but luckily did not rain.
You climb almost 500 stairs to the top. There is a break to view the top of the Cupola before looking out from it.
The views were stunning from the top.
So we hadn't had breakfast at this point and it was around 11:00am. I wanted pizza (with slight protest from my husband) and we sought out Trattoria Za Za based on a recommendation. Obviously it wasn't busy yet so perfect timing.
And, um, they had a full on truffle menu. After starting with some refreshing rosé…
I got a grilled eggplant pizza and we shared a side of truffle fries (obvi).
Tim had a pizza called El Fuego that kindly came with a shot of Tequila. It was 5 o'clock somewhere.
Then had some espressos.
After this we headed to the Mercato Centrale which is foodie heaven. There are stalls upon stalls of all kinds of food. Meat, cheese, olive oil, fruit, veggies, sandwiches. Ahhh. The traditional market is downstairs in the building.
There was soooo much to look at.
The upstairs originally had sat empty for years but in 2014, it was redone with modern mini-restaurants and an Eataly. My 4th Eataly! New York City, Chicago, Munich, and now Florence. It was really busy so we just did a quick tour (and we came back on our last day).
We wandered the markets outside, marveling at all of the leather and other goods for sale.
After this, we went into the actual Cathedral of the Duomo and also saw the crypt.
We then headed over to the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella and then into the Officina Profumo Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella. The pharmacy was founded in the 1200s and it feels absolutely grand when you walk inside. They sell all kinds of herbal things from perfumes to food to body lotion to spa treatments.
Then we stumbled upon the tea room which was quite the experience.
We felt so fancy even though we were grubby from touristing all day.
I had a bitter almond tea and Tim had a some kind of fruit tea. We had a blackberry tart and an almond cake. SO GOOD. And chocolates to start.
It was such a pleasant surprise and something different to do.
The sun magically decided to make an appearance so we headed over to Piazzale Michaelangelo. It is a bit of a climb to the top but it has amazing views of the city.
I mean, really.
We were craving some spritzers so we stopped at a cafe on the piazzale.
Now THAT'S living the life.
We weren't too far off from dinner so we headed back to get ready. Dinner was at Acqua Al 2, also from a recommendation. The atmosphere was more casual compared to the night before but the food was definitely really good!
They gave us bread with bruschetta and a fava bean spread to start (with our bottle of wine, of course). Then, it was the primo piatti and pasta course. I had raviolis with truffle (duh) and Tim had cannelloni.
Next, we had steaks as our main course. Now, these pictures look not so great. I had a blueberry steak and Tim had a balsamic steak. The sauces were absolutely amazing and the steak was so tender and perfectly cooked. I apologize that the pictures look like a pile of…you know what.
We had a very early start the next morning so we head back to our apartment after an amazing meal.

French unions gear up for future threats
The ITF addressed the congress of the French union federation the FEETS-FO to bolster the determination of activists to strengthen their unions in the face of national and global threats to workers.
A record 300 delegates from across France participated in the 11th congress of the Federation of Equipment, Environment, Transport and Services FORCE OUVRIERE (FEETS-FO) from January 31 to February 2. FEETS-FO represents both public and private sector employees, who face common attacks on workplace rights.
The participants had come together to discuss how unions could become stronger to tackle the democratic crisis in many countries and to fight against liberalisation and deregulation, social dumping and flags of convenience in the air and at sea. The activists agreed that in order to remain independent, it was important for the trade union movement to become stronger by increasing its membership and presence.
They cited as examples of what unions were up against on the domestic front the controversial labour laws introduced in France in 2016 and Air France's efforts to drive through a restructuring plan involving 2,900 redundancies by 2017.
Jean Hedou, general secretary of FEETS-FO, said: "This congress was a highlight for our brothers and sisters who are more than ever mobilized. The interventions of our brothers of ITF and ETF showed that they were not alone and that solidarity with the other workers all over the world is real. All together, we will succeed in our fights."
Steve Cotton, ITF general secretary, and Eduardo Chagas, general secretary of the ITF's European arm the ETF, delivered motivating messages to the Force Ouvriere activists. Confederation FO secretary general Jean-Claude Mailly and several federation secretaries and union secretaries also attended.

Is Vehicle Customization Right For You?
Vehicle customization is one of the hottest services in the automotive repair industry. Offered by body and specialty shops, it is extremely popular with younger drivers. In this article we are going to take a closer look at the options and accessories that are used in this exciting new service.
Before we go into the details, you may want to know exactly what vehicle customization is. This is a service that goes by several different names. Some automotive experts refer to it as vehicle customization or vehicle personalization, while others call it an automotive upgrade. No matter what you call it, the purpose is the same; to add something to a vehicle for some specific reason.
What are some of the reasons people opt for vehicle customization? The upgrades normally fall into one of these three categories: performance upgrades, aesthetic upgrades, or entertainment upgrades. We will take a look at each of these different categories.
Anything that changes the appearance of a vehicle is considered an aesthetic upgrade. This upgrade could be as simple as a basic paint job or as complex as detailed artistry. Many younger drivers opt for personal roof or hood designs on their vehicles. These are essentially tattoos for vehicles. And don't forget about custom rims and tires. Specialty shops offer spinning rims that can sell for thousands of dollars or custom tires. Anything like this is considered an aesthetic upgrade.
Moving on, an entertainment upgrade is anything that adds or improves sound or video in your vehicle. Probably the most popular entertainment upgrade is the installation of custom audio equipment. Upgrade experts specialize in the latest CD, digital and satellite radio systems. They can also recommend effective speakers and subwoofers or mobile video. Yes, many people are installing television sets and even video game systems in their cars these days. They are particularly popular with families who take long trips. And for those long trips, a navigational system is yet another entertainment upgrade that can be installed by an expert.
Last, there are the performance upgrades. As you may already suspect, these jobs are usually the most expensive of all vehicle upgrades because it involves upgrading the vehicle's engine. You might be wondering why a person would go to the trouble of upgrading the engine of a regular passenger vehicle. Why not buy a racing car in the first place? The fact of the matter is that vehicle upgrades are much less expensive than buying an actual racing car. Another benefit to upgrading the engine is the alterations can be made gradually, meaning they won't have to be paid for all at once.
The most popular performance upgrades include: turbochargers, nitrous oxide tanks, superchargers, cat-back exhaust systems, fuel and ignition upgrades, and horsepower upgrades. The cost of any single improvement can be thousands, but the improvement in performance will not go unnoticed.
In our effort to categorize each type of vehicle customization upgrade, we left out a few options that don't fit into any specific category. For example, window tinting might be considered an aesthetic upgrade to some, but aside from that it also is functional and serves a purpose much more than just a decoration.
Yves B. Geller authored this story. He is mainly a car hobbyist but he carries out his love for cars through vehicle customization. He believes it's alright to use a train horn so long as it is used responsibly. It's actually pretty easy to install an air horn to your car, truck or boat.

As we have discussed in the previous parts of this article, N-gas springs have force characteristics that are different from weights and other types of springs used for resistance. The unique characteristics explained so far have been a result of the gas spring's ability to capture muscular forces as it is compressed, which is half the story. In this part we will detail the characteristics of how muscles are contracting in an eccentric lengthening motion while contracting. The distinctions of what weights do and what the n-gas spring does during this phase is going to be very popular while doing a bit of debunking of long standing myths. The "negative" eccentric phase of the repetition has been far more researched than the "positive" concentric phase for several reasons. One would think that when it comes to muscular contractions and performance, the "lifting" phase of any movement is more important and understanding the benefits of the adaption is of interest. However, the training community and physical culture tends to steer research to things we don't really quite understand and they make up answers to questions if science has yet to prove it. When you find high amounts of philosophies, dogma, and pseudo-science that have no real objective data to rely upon, the quest for truth leads to scientific methods. So what do we know about eccentric contractions now from research?
From the studies conducted with "weights", we have learned some important things that occur during eccentric phase of contractions. Probably the biggest thing we have learned is that the soreness and inflammation that occurs hours later from muscle contractions is from the muscle being elongated by mechanical forces greater than the contraction forces the muscle is generating. At first it was thought that lactate, or lactic acid, was the culprit of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS). But with good research and extensive studies, it was found that the two were not cause and effect, but merely associative. The harder one trained, the more lactate, and thus more DOMS it was thought. Very easy to make that assumption since the immediate feel of the "burn" felt similar to the "soreness" experienced later. When you get burnt by something hot you have a sensation that is immediate from the hot "thing" touching your skin, and a blister that has long term pain. So the "thing" must be creating both effects. Not scientific, but large consensus of agreement make it true.
By separating the directional movement work loads with test subjects doing similar exercises, reps, and sets, interesting things were found as one group did the "lifting" phase only, and the other did the "lowering" phase only. It was found that the group that did the lifting phase felt and created more "lactate" burn and far less DOMS, and the group that "lowered" weights only felt little "burn" and created way more DOMS. Many studies later it was determined that the mechanical forces lengthening the muscle while it was signaled to shorten for force generation caused the contractile components to be damaged. This damage was micro tears that led to inflammation, pain, and a host of other cellular functions happening from the damage and repair. Now we know what the DOMS is specifically from, repetitive intense eccentric contractions.
Unfortunately, what was extrapolated was that DOMS was needed to increase muscular strength and growth since repairing the damage was occurring while the muscle healed. Once the muscle healed, it was stronger. Since the harder one exercised, it increased DOMS and also muscular size-strength was associated to it. It was etched in stone when some declared, "You have to tear the muscle down to repair it and make it bigger and stronger". Makes perfect sense doesn't it? It was cemented even further when it was found that small "satellite cells" found in muscle could be 'transformed" into muscle cells under very intense exercise conditions that cause cellular damage. DOMS is cellular damage and now this equals satellite cells turning into muscle. So it is true that DOMS is needed for increased muscle and strength. Or is it? When hardcore "weight training" advocates are confronted with the fact that you don't need to "tear it up, to build it up" they cling to the DOMS-satellite cell pathway to growth. When asked this question, "Why not consider all the studies of that took human subjects and introduced hormonal growth factors (Hgh, steroids, testosterone, and other anabolic substances) to them and the subjects did NOT exercise OR get DOMS and gained muscle mass. How do you explain that?" The DOMS supporters don't know really what to say. Isn't that interesting? The hormone test subjects in the experiments did not get sore (NO DOMS), and they got stronger and without a doubt got more muscle mass. They didn't even exercise! So is DOMS really needed to increase muscle mass and strength? Doesn't seem so.
So let's summarize those two myths. Lactate does not cause DOMS. And DOMS is not needed for increased muscle mass and muscular strength. DOMS does elicit higher hormones for sure. Unfortunately the hormone is cortisol. And research has found that long term high levels of cortisol are definitely NOT GOOD. We will revisit that topic later. Enough about the myths, and to understand what is really going happening, read on.
Intense resistance exercise studies have without question raised the natural hormonal anabolic response in every age, sex, and experience level of human subject tested. And we know for fact that if the hormones are not augmented in an anabolic fashion, muscle and strength are not going to increase. My opinion is if the hormones are not changed and the muscle mass does, then the study is likely flawed. Research has proven over and over that specific hormones or growth factors increase protein synthesis. Studies have shown over and over that the higher the intensity of exercise the higher the lactate. They have even proven that introduction of lactate without exercise increases anabolic growth factors. This recently has increased the creation of new training programs specifically designed to produce high levels of lactate to reflect the science. "Lactic acid Training", "Lactate Threshold Training", " High Intensity Interval Training-HIIT), and host of other named programs are becoming very popular that claim increased lactate production to augment the hormones. It works in the lab, and now we are finding it works in the gym.
So what does this have to do with n-gas springs and why they are better? Remember the graph in Part 1 of the article. Notice you will see two lines. The top one is the compression stroke and has more force. The lower one is the return, or extension force, which has less force. We learned earlier that the compression stroke of the gas spring is happening during the concentric phase (lifting) of the muscle contraction. And further to be learned is that the higher the mechanical resistance the higher the concentric contraction force from the muscle, the more lactate is produced. Higher lactate equals higher anabolic hormone and growth factor production. On the other side of the rep, the n-gas spring creates less extension force resulting in less eccentric phase (lowering) contraction activation and less damage leading to a reduction DOMS and cortisol.
Less n-gas extension force = less eccentric contraction force = less contractile fiber damage = less DOMS = less cortisol and a host of other negative side effects.
So, DOMS doesn't create muscle but does create inflammation and higher cortisol response. So let's look at that. What you don't see is the cortisol response. Cortisol is our "st

|Clay Shirky's Writings About the Internet
In-room Chat as a Social Tool
This fall, I hosted a two-day brainstorming session for 30 or so people on the subject of social software. The event, sponsored by Cap-Gemini's Center for Business Innovation and Nokia's Insight and Foresight unit, took place in an open loft, and in addition to the usual "sit around a big table and talk to each other" format, we set up an in-room chat channel accessible over the WiFi network. We hosted the chat using Greg Elin's modifications to Manuel Kiessling's lovely ARSC (A Really Simple Chat) software. (Greg and I had used a similar setup in a somewhat different setting, and we were determined to experiment further at the social software event.)
The in-room chat created a two-channel experience -- a live conversation in the room, and an overlapping real-time text conversation. The experiment was a strong net positive for the group. Most social software is designed as a replacement for face-to-face meetings, but the spread of permanet -- connectivity like air -- provides opportunities for social software to be used by groups who are already gathered in the same location. For us, the chat served as a kind of social whiteboard. In this note, I want to detail what worked and why, what the limitations and downsides of in-room chat were, and point out possible future avenues for exploration.
The setup was quite simple. We were working in a large open loft, seated around a ring of tables, and we connected a WiFi hub to the room's cable modem. Most of the participants had WiFi-capable laptops, and ARSC works in a browser, so there were no client issues. We put a large plasma screen at one end of the room.
We created a chat room for the event, and asked the participants using the chat to log in using their first name. In addition, we created a special username, Display, which we logged into a machine connected to the plasma screen. The Display interface had no text-entry field, suppressed control messages, and had its font set very large. This maximized screen real estate for user-entered messages, and made them readable even by participants sitting 10 meters away (though it minimized the amount of scroll-back visible on the plasma screen.)
We made the participants aware of the chat room at the beginning of the event, and set no other rules for its use (though at one point, we asked that people only use the chat room, saying nothing out loud for half an hour.) The chat room was available throughout the meeting. The first 10 minutes of the chat were the usual set of test messages, hellos, and other "My hovercraft is full of eels" randomness, but once the meeting got rolling, the chat room became an invaluable tool.
The chat room created several advantages.
1. It changed interrupt logic.
Group conversations are exercises in managing interruptions. When someone is speaking, the listeners are often balancing the pressure to be polite with a desire to interrupt, whether to add material, correct or contradict the speaker, or introduce an entirely new theme. These interruptions are often tangential, and can lead to still more interruptions or follow-up comments by still other listeners. Furthermore, conversations that proceed by interruption are governed by the people best at interrupting. People who are shy, polite, or like to take a moment to compose their thoughts before speaking are at a disadvantage.
Even with these downsides, however, the tangents can be quite valuable, so if an absolute "no interrupt" rule were enforced, at least some material of general interest would be lost, and the frustration level among the participants consigned solely to passive listening would rise considerably.
The chat room undid these effects, because participants could add to the conversation without interrupting, and the group could pursue tangential material in the chat room while listening in the real room. It was remarkable how much easier it was for the speaker to finish a complex thought without being cut off. And because chat participants had no way of interrupting one another in the chat room, even people not given to speaking out loud could participate. Indeed, one of our most active participants contributed a considerable amount of high-quality observation and annotation while saying almost nothing out loud for two days.
2. "Note to self" became "Note to world"
The more successful a meeting, the more "note to self" moments happen, where a light goes off in someone's head, and they are moved to write the insight down for later examination. The chat channel provided an interesting alternative to personal note-taking, which was group note-taking. By entering "notes to self" into the chat, participants could both archive thoughts (the chat was logged) and to share those thoughts with the rest of the room to see what reactions they might spark. This is slightly different than simply altering interrupt logic, and more along the lines of Cory Doctorow's "outboard brain" idea, because in this case, the chat was capturing material that would not otherwise have been shared with the group.
3. High-quality text annotation
What the spoken word has in emotive quality, it lacks in precision. Much interesting material thrown out during the course of group conversations is difficult to capture in an ideal form. When taking notes, it's easy to misspell a name or mis-punctuate a URL, and things committed solely to memory can be difficult to retrieve later ("Somebody said something about a researcher in Oregon? Uraguay? The name began with a G..."). Comments in the chat log solved these problems -- if the attendees were talking about Gerd Korteum's work, or the Kuro5hin website, the spelling and punctuation were unambiguous.
There were two additional effects that improved the quality of the text annotation. Because everyone was connected to the web, not just the local chat, the participants could google for websites and quotes before they posted. (At one point during the Friday session, a fierce rain started, and someone pasted the US Weather service advisory for the area into the chat.) And because ARSC turns URLs into links, the rest of the group could click on a link in the chat window when it was added, so that new material could be glanced at and bookmarked in context, rather than hours or days later.
The annotation was also affected by the one-way relation between the real world conversation and the chat. Though it's too early to know whether this was a bug or a feature, themes from the real world conversation were constantly reflected in the chat room, but almost never vice-versa. This suggests that the participants regarded the chat as a place for ancilliary comments, rather than a separate but equal conversational space.
4. Less whispering, more \whisper ing
People whisper to one another during conferences, sometimes for good reasons ("What does UDDI mean?") and sometimes for not-so-good ones ("So this Estonian guy goes into a bar..."). Like interrupting, however, a blanket "No whispering" ban would throw the good out with the bad, and would reduce the quality of the experience for the attendees. Furthermore, even when there is a good reason to whisper to someone, the larger the conference, the likelier it is you won't be seated next to them.
The \whisper command in ARSC means that, topologically, everyone is seated next to everyone else. By typing "\whisper Rusty', a participant could send a point-to-point message to Rusty without disrupting the meeting. Though the whisper's weren't logged, an informal poll at the end of the second day showed that a large majority of chat room participants had used \whisper at some point.
Ironically, the effectiveness of the \whisper command was somewhat limited by the "split screen" focus between the room and the chat. Because \whisper requests went to the invitees laptop, if someone was looking away from their screen for a few minutes, they would miss the invitation, since \whisper requests didn't go to the plasma screen. One user suggested the addition of a \pssst function of some sort to get someone's attention. Another possibility would be making a second \whisper-only window, so that \whisper conversations could be more asynchronous.
5. Alleviated boredom.
Groups of people have diverse interests, so no matter how generally scintillating a meeting overall, at some point someone is going to find the subject at hand dull. The in-room chat helped alleviate this boredom, while keeping the participants talking to one another about the subject at hand.
This is the advantage hardest to understand in the abstract. When I talk about the in-room chat, people often ask "But isn't that distracting? Don't you want to make people pay attention to the speaker?" This is similar to the question from the early days of the Web: "But why have any outside links at all? Don't you want to make people stay on your site?"
Once you assume permanet, whether from Wifi, Richochet, or GPRS, this logic crumbles. Anyone with a laptop or phone can, if they are bored, turn to the internet, and the question becomes "Given that attendees will be using the network, would you rather have them talking to one another, or reading Slashdot?" The people who gathered in NYC came to converse with one another, and the in-room chat provided a way for them to meet that goal even when they were not riveted by the main event.
Chat as a meeting tool isn't a universally good idea, of course. Every successful use of social software has environmental factors working in its favor.
First and foremost, the attendees were tech-savvy people who travel with WiFi capable laptops and think about novel uses of social software, so they were inclined to want to use something like ARSC, even if only as an experiment. There was no resistance to trying something so odd and unproven, as there might be in less techie groups.
The group was also self-motivated. Because their attendance was optional, they largely stayed on-topic. One can easily imagine that in a meeting where attendance is passive and forced ("The boss wants everyone in the conference room at 5:45") the contents of the chat would be much more tangential (to say nothing of libelous.) Since most parlimentary rules, whether formal or informal, begin with the premise that only one person can speak at once, and then arrange elaborate rules for determining who can speak when, the presence of an alternate channel could severely disrupt highly structured meetings such as client conferences or legal negotiations. Whether this would be a bug or a feature depends on your point of view.
The goals of the meeting were in synch with the experience the chat room offered. We were not trying to forge a working group, get to consensus, or even converge on a small set of ideas. Indeed, the goals of the meeting were explicitly divergent, trying to uncover and share as much new material as possible in a short period. The chat room aided this goal admirably.
The scale of the meeting also worked in our favor. The group was large enough that sitting around a table with a laptop open wasn't rude or disruptive, but small enough that everyone could use a single chat room. At one point during the Saturday session, we broke into small groups to brainstorm around specific problems, and though there was no explicit request to do so, every single member of the group shut their laptop screens for two hours. Groups of 6 are small enough that all the members can feel engaged with the group, and the chat would have been much less useful and much more rude in that setting.
On the other hand, whenever things got really active on the chat channel (we averaged about 4 posts a minute, but it sometimes spiked to 10 or so), people complained about the lack of threading, suggesting that 30 was at or near an upper limit for participation.
There were also some more technical or formal aspects of the meeting that worked in our favor.
The plasma screen showing the Display view was surprisingly important. We had not announced the WiFi network or chat channel in advance, and we had no idea how many people would bring WiFi-capable laptops. (As it turned out, most did.) The plasma screen was there to share the chat room's content's with the disconnected members. However, the screen also added an aspect of social control -- because anything said in the chat room was displayed openly, it helped keep the conversation on-topic. Curiously, this seemed to be true even though most of the room was reading the contents of the chat on their laptop screens. The plasma screen created a public feeling without actually exposing the contents to a "public" different from the attendees.
During a brief post-mortem, several users reported using the plasma screen for chunking, so that they could mainly pay attention to the speaker, but flash their eyes to the screen occasionally to see what was in the chat room, taking advantage of the fact that most people read much faster than most speakers talk. (Viz. the horror of the speaker who puts up a PowerPoint page, and then reads each point.)
There were two bits of organizational structure that also helped shape the meeting. The first was our adoption of Jerry Michalski's marvelous "Red Card/Green Card" system, where participants were given a set of colored cards about 20 cm square in three colors, red, green, and gray. The cards were used to make explicit but non-verbal commentary on what was being said at the time. A green card indicates strong assent, red strong dissent, and gray confusion.
In an earlier experiment with ARSC, Greg added virtual cards; users could click on red or green icons and have those added to the chat. This proved unsatisfying, and for this meeting we went back to the use of physical cards. The use of the cards to indicate non-verbal and emotive reactions seemed to provide a nice balance with the verbal and less emotive written material. At one point, we spent half an hour in conversation with the only rule being "No talking." The entire room was chatting for 30 minutes, and even in that situation, people would physically wave green cards whenever anyone posted anything particularly worthy in the chat room.
While the no-talking experiment was interesting, it was not particularly useful. One of the participants whose work was being discussed in the chat (he had just finished talking when we entered the no-talking period) reported missing the actual verbal feedback from colleagues. The chat comments made about his ideas, while cogent, lacked the emotional resonance that makes face-to-face meetings work. By enforcing the no-talking rule, we had re-created some of the disadvantages of virtual meetings in a real room.
The other bit of organizational structure was borrowed from Elliott Maxwell and the Aspen Institute, where participants wanting to speak would turn their name cards vertically, thus putting comments in a queue. This was frustrating for many of the participants, who had to wait several minutes to react to something. This also severely altered interrupt logic. (At several points, people gave up their turn to speak, saying "the moment has passed.") Despite the frustration it caused, this system kept us uncovering new material as opposed to going down rat holes, and it made the chat room an attractive alternative for saying something immediate.
Though we found ARSC to be a useful addition to the meeting, there was an unusually good fit between the tool and the environment. For every favorable bit of context listed above, there is a situation where an in-room chat channel would be inappropriate. Meetings where the attention to the speaker needs to be more total will be problematic, as will situations where a majority of the audience is either not connected or uncomfortable with chat.
Even in this group not everyone had a laptop, and for those people, the chat contents were simply a second channel of information which they could observe but not effect. Absolute ubiquity of the necessary hardware is some ways off for even tech-savvy groups, and several years away at least for the average group. Any meeting wanting to implement a system like this will have to take steps to make the chat optional, or to provide the necessary hardware where it is lacking.
It may also be that increasing phone/PDA fusion will actually reduce the number of laptops present at meetings. Using social tools at event where phones are the personal device of choice will require significant additional thought around the issues of small screens, thumb keyboards, and other ergonomic issues.
In-room chat is unlikely to be useful for small groups (fewer than a dozen, at a guess), and its usefulness for groups larger than 30 may also be marginal (though in that case, ways of providing multiple chat rooms may be helpful.)
Given that the most profound effects of the chat were in changing interrupt logic, many of the downsides came from the loss of interruption as a tool. As annoying as interruptions may be, they help keep people honest, by placing a premium on brevity, and on not spinning castles in the air. Without interruption, the speaker loses an important feedback mechanism, and may tend towards long-winded and unsupported claims. At the very least, the use of in-room chat puts a premium on strong moderation of some sort, to make up for the structural loss of interruption.
Perhaps most importantly, it will almost certainly be unhelpful for groups that need to function as a team. Because the two-track structure encourages a maximum number of new and tangential items being placed together, it would probably be actively destructive for groups where consensus was a goal. As Steven Johnson has noted about the event, the chat room moved most of the humor from real world interjections to network ones, which preserved the humor but suppressed the laughter. (Most of then time when people write 'lol', they aren't.) Though this helps on the "interrupt logic" front, it also detracts from building group cohesion.
This experiment was relatively small and short, having been applied to one group over two days. It would be interesting to know what the effect would be for groups meeting for longer periods. On the first day, we averaged not quite 3 1/2 posts a minute, occasionally spiking to 9 or 10. On the second day, the average rose to just over 4 posts a minute, but the spikes didn't change, suggesting that users were becoming more accustomed to a steady pace of posting.
During the half-hour of chat only/no talking out loud, the average nearly tripled, to over 11 posts a minute, and occasionally spiking to 18, suggesting that during the normal sessions, users were paying what Linda Stone calls "continuous partial attention" to both the chat room and the real room, and with the strictures of the real room artificially suppressed, the chat room exploded. (The question of whether the change in posting rate was uniform among all users is difficult to answer with the small sample data.)
Several additional experiments suggest themselves.
- For conferences whose sessions average no more than 30 users, having each room assigned its own chat channel could let users listening to the same talk find one another with little effort. Likewise, finding ways of forking large groups into multiple chats might be worthwhile, whether using specific characteristics (UI Designers in one, Information Architects in another and so on) or arbitrary ones (even or odd date of birth) to keep the population of any one channel in the 12-25 range. (The lack of plasma screen as a public mediating factor might be an issue.)CONCLUSION
Real world groups are accustomed to having tools to help them get their work done -- flipcharts, white boards, projectors, and so on. These tools are typically used by only one person at a time. This experiment demonstrated the possibility of social tools, tools that likewise aid a real-world group, but which are equally accessible to all members at the same time. There are a number of other experiments one can imagine, from using the chat to accept input from remote locations, to integrating additional I/O devices such as cameras or projectors. The core observation, though, is that under certain conditions, groups can find value in participating in two simultaneous conversation spaces, one real and one virtual.

As with any compilation of shorts, The Horror Vault is a mixed bag. Kim Sønderholm directs and stars in the first and fourth segments, When John Met Julia and Mental Distortion. When John Met Julia is reminiscent of the The Hitch-Hiker segment in Creepshow II (1987). While well played, Sønderholms direction is a little too methodical and never holds enough of the sharp surprises that an anthology segment like this needs. It could have worked well if the psychological games between John and Julia had been drawn out more, while the twist ending seems perfunctory. Mental Distortion is a lot more assured. Again it hangs around someone (Sønderholm himself) being haunted in their apartment. We never find out who the dead girl in the bath and Sønderholms nightmares is and the episode falters at its payoff, but is put together and played with a considerable professional assurance. The two actors seem at home in the roles and craft credible characters.
The second segment, Delusion, is one of the strongest segments in The Horror Vault. Director Mark Machillo and photographer Graham Futerfas do a superb job of capturing the mood and lighting effects of 1940s film noir melodrama. The story in the segment is slight but the mood captured is top notch.
Alone feels like could easily be the last 15 minutes of a 1980s slasher film. The entire segment hangs on the heroine (Mandy Amano) alone in the sorority house, unsure whether the detective at the door or the guy she has just let in are the killer or not. These are familiar doubt and suspicion set-ups for a slasher film but are well delivered and not too badly performed with director Kenny Selko riding the rollercoaster of the heroines suspicions in all the right places.
Dead to the World is a segment based on true-life serial killer Ted Bundy. The films five minutes are far too brief to do Bundy justice see the feature-length Ted Bundy (2002) for a far better treatment. The episode makes the case that Bundy was driven by rape as much as he was murder but the peculiarly named lead actor (and segment director) Russ Diaper does not in any way resemble the real Bundy Bundy was described as charming, calculating and highly intelligent; Diaper comes across as short, stocky and nervously hesitant. The other complaint one might have about Dead to the World and with The Horror Vault is that some of the segments come in different screen formats even after trying to adjust my screen, I wasnt able to view Dead to the World is anything other than an ugly stretch format that looked like it was shot through a distorting mirror.
Disconnected is a brief and effective piece that hangs on a sardonic twist ending. We go through a series of torture scenes a man having nails hammered into his fingers, fingers snipped off, legs broken, attacked with a power drill that become increasingly over-the-top before arriving at the twist ending, which is not unreminiscent of the Quitters, Inc segment of Cats Eye (1985). The segment is a single joke and comes with just the right length to be amusing and not outstay its welcome.
While the segments so far have held up to a reasonable quality, The Demon is an amateurish piece. Thomas Steen Sørensen is constantly straining for atmosphere and in doing so only ever discovers horror cliches. The segment consists of a man being pursued a figure that is wearing obvious contact lenses, before the hackneyed end twist that shows that the demon figure was only in his head.
Echoes is another episode in mixed screen format. The segment is brief and only really hangs around various trompe loeil imagery the man handcuffed in a bed revealed as being a mental patient in a hospital, the dead soldier and zombies being other patients, the woman with a handful of worms being a nurse with a handful of pills and so on. Brief enough to make the point but one felt the segment could have been developed more than that.
When it comes to Retina, I must confess to having no idea what the segment was about. A group of people gather in a house anticipating the return of a friend. In some scenes they are blind, in others sighted but it is not at all clear why. The segment is shot in some amazing grainy black-and-white camerawork that captures an incredibly deranged, fractured mindspace but as to what is going on, it could be anybodys guess.
