Asia workshop

Hi Julia, I added a little extra formating to your AsiaWorkshop. I hope that this is ok. If it isn't the direction you were thinking of let me know and I can revert my edits. Seth 15:28, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Seth's improved version is at Asia workshop (I repeated Seth's formatting of the original :-) ). -- Skierpage 03:23, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Better than Excel

Re: File:OLPC ASIA WORKSHOP PARTICIPANTS.xls
Instead of uploading Excel spreadsheets that don't work in browsers and on XOs, you can upload MS Office docs to http://docs.google.com or http://zoho.com, where you can continue to edit them but also share the as web pages and collaboratively on them with others. -- Skierpage 03:23, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

I changed Image: links to Media: links in your "Learning workshops" page

Image: is for images that are going to be directly visible in the web page (e.g. photographs). Media: provides a direct link to the uploaded file (e.g. a powerpoint presentation).

The change lets people directly see or download the presentations, just by clicking the link.

Thank you for putting all this info up where we can find it!
