If you've a modern router, the chances are somewhere embedded in the side is a USB port. Perhaps you're using it for wireless printing? Perhaps you've attached a drive as a handy place to back up all of your vitally important files? Maybe you're using it for your Mac Time Capsule backups (anyone tried this; it ought to work shouldn't it?) Or maybe, you weren't aware you could? I have a wealth of important (to me) files backed up on a 500Gb Buffalo drive, in order of importance Videos of the children growing up (yes they're also backed up on Mega) The contents of my daughters old computer (ready for when we can get her a new one of her own) My Music (also synchronised with Google Music) My Photos (also synchronised with Google Photos) All of this data takes up over 250gb of a 500gb drive. So when the new vodafone router wouldn't work with it, after I'd got my number back, I set about solving this quandary. On the first night this drive w...
There are several rudimentary tech skills that every year 7 pupil should start High School with. By this age, it would be beneficial if a pupil knew how to complete their school work with a minimum of anxiety. In my experience, we currently do not have parity or equality when it comes to children transitioning into high school. Knowledge levels will be varied depending on the school that the pupil came from and the structure that the school has in place. Some children will complete their first assignments with minimum effort, focusing on the topic, instead of the technical problems, and others may become overwhelmed and anxious, which would lead to a loss of confidence and worry. What skills do I mean? I'm talking about advanced skills that reduce anxiety and pressure when the expectation is put on a child to complete a specific piece of work. Just using presentations and an example, (feel free to use as a checklist) in order of complexity; Adding slides Adding text boxes ...
I've just been directed to an excellent blog post entitled 'Superfly guy' from 2014 which strongly suggests that Drones will be the future of housing surveillance and surveying. From this, from the same author Tony Smith, recently tweets, asking .... #Drones were going to save the #socialhousing world, what happened to them? The tweet also contains a link to the original article, which is well worth a read here. http://tonysmiththathousingitguy.blogspot.co.uk/2014/02/superfly-guy.html Now, I'm not sure how drones alone could save the social housing world especially with the current state of underfunded affairs. Nevertheless, the idea that they could, or should, save housing companies significant amounts of money and time by simplifying seemingly costly and time consuming survey work at height, is a realistic assumption and one that really needs to be addressed. The article also mentions very briefly, one of the major obstacles that I believe is causing drone...
