- 7 Things You Should Know About QR Codes
(source: Educause, 14/02/09)
"QR codes are two-dimensional bar codes that can contain any alphanumeric text and that often feature URLs that direct users to sites where they can learn about an object or place (a practice known as “mobile tagging”). Decoding software on tools such as camera phones interprets the codes, which are increasingly found in places such as product labels, billboards, and buildings, inviting passers-by to pull out their mobile phones and uncover the encoded information.

- The NetGens 2.0: Clouds on the Horizon
(source: Educause Review, vol. 44, no. 1 (January/February 2009): 66–67)
""NetGens 1.0" to "NetGens 2.0" is how the author describes the shift in tech requirements of today's college undergrads. In the space of four years, they've gone from an environment where getting a laptop was a big deal to one where pretty much everyone is born with a laptop. Reports indicate that today's 18-29 year olds are the most connected group in history; they're also interacting online the most. The author naturally wonders how these habits will affect IT requirements in higher ed."

Rethinking the role of an OpenURL link resolver
"I think we should rethink the role of an OpenURL link resolver, for our patrons and our digital services for them, and for internal library tech infrastructure. We should be asking a bit more of such software than we are, and utilizing it more fully. [...]"

"Scholarly journals are known as the most important medium for scholarly communication since long time back. As technology transforms the flow of information and idea everywhere, it changes the nature of scholarly communications and publishing of scholarly journals as well. The electronic scholarly publishing rapidly produced an expectation, among researchers of the availability of articles at their desktop, rather than the previous scenario of visiting the library to read a print journal issue. There are lots of technological improvements in electronic journals publishing. The present paper looks at some of technical issues in electronic publishing such as DOI, DOI-X, CrossRef, Citation/Reference Linking, OpenURL, SFX and MetaLib which are being used in the World Wide Web."
