Faves for this Web page

"The Slashdot take on Blackboard’s setup is very informative - particularly this bit (cut down):
*It produces hundreds of megabytes of absolutely useless logs every day.
*The built in log archiving utility doesn’t work.
*It’s built primarily on Tomcat.
*Their support is nearly non-existent
*They use incredibly inefficient stored procedures which can bring down an entire system"Read the linked slashdot thread. I'm just glad other people hated it and WebCT just as much and I wasn't just going crazy. And my new uni has it too (a slightly better version) - arrgh!

"Adobe Flex Builder 3 Pro is available for free to students and faculty of eligible education institutions."
Although Flex 3 is open source, there isn't a decent IDE out there for it apart from Adobe's commercial Flex Builder 3. Luckily, they've made it free for students here - just fill in the form and attach a scanned copy of your student card. Only takes a day or two to get the key. Pretty neat stuff.
