The following is one of a series of articles that I have published recently on solutions to help students, business people and others improve the ways they organise their life an do things. An organised person is much more likely to be a successful person. To see other articles visit my English language articles about education and other issues of interest to students and parents. .

As with many of you I am sure you have had to either run a meeting at some time. This can be quite difficult. After many years of teaching and consulting in business and education I have written a short article on meetings.

Meetings 11 General tips to remember
Run better meetings:
1.Call a meeting only when it is necessary.
2.Plan and prepare yourself for all meetings.
3.Have clear and achievable objectives.
4.Prepare and distribute an agenda early.
5.Keep to starting and finishing times.
6.Keep control. Know the rules, give clear directions, listen carefully, summarise often and keep on schedule.
7.Get things done. Action by whom? By when?
8.Make the most of the talent and experience present.
9.Review and summarise often.

If you want Auto CAD software ready made then I suggest you try these:
Google Sketch Up 7
I use this and Its great. You can coulour, make 3D drawings and use lots of things. It is very powerful and free
PROdesktop 8
Probably the most powerful ever free AutoCAD program I’ve ever seen. You can do all sorts with it you probably didnt even dream of. It’s great and produces great results
http://www.mininova.org/tor/265677
http://sketchup.google.com/download/gsu.html

I have learnt some basic command line interpreters, and created a few scripts using them, so I am familiar with the protocols of creating programs, and required to know if there is a simple programming language, capable of developing minor applications, such as alarms, and auto clickers.

Not bothering with C++, too complicated currently.

Additionally, if you could post a link to x programming language's tutorial, that would be great.

Thanks in advance.

If you are a windows user get a few copies of Visual Studio Express Editions (Visual Basic.NET, C#), download Eclipse for Java programming. Google those for links. You can write javascript scripts and execute them right in your browser.

When our church first decided to venture into the world of podcasting last year, the process seemed daunting. We had only ventured into multimedia development a little bit – mostly in recording and burning our sermons to CD. The internet, however, and things such as podcasting, seemed completely foreign to us.

Our friends in other congregations who already had podcasts running kept extolling how wonderful the technology was, and how it enabled them to get the message out for a relatively low cost. When our daughter showed us that she was getting weekly updates from every church in the area apart from ours, we made the decision to make the leap as well (no, there isn’t any sense of competitiveness here. Certainly not!)

This article is the end result of the past year of our endeavors, and hopefully will serve as a primer for those that want to get their church podcasting as well. The hardest part of getting the podcast up and running was understanding exactly how a podcast works, and getting everything properly prepared. I hope to help you through that learning curve, by explaining everything in simple language. The concept isn’t difficult whatsoever!

First, let’s define what a podcast is.

A podcast is a text file located on the internet that points to a group of media files. This text file is called a newsfeed (or an RSS feed), and acts like a roadmap to media files that are also located on the internet. When someone views a podcast, what they are actually doing is reading this text file, and being pointed to the appropriate media files.

The program that reads the text file (newsfeed) is called an aggregator. The aggregator reads the text file, and grabs the media files that it is being pointed to. All of this is done in the background, giving you the illusion of “single” show that has multiple episodes. In reality, however, it’s just a bunch of files located on the internet tied together via this text file.

This text file must follow a certain format, in order to assure compatibility across the range of aggregators out there (e.g., iTunes). The structure of the text file defines the details of the show (the show’s title, description, etc), and where to find the show’s episodes. It’s done in a pretty straightforward manner.

For an example of how a newsfeed looks, check out Apple’s technical document on podcast structure. http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/podcaststechspecs.html#_Toc526931673 “Channel” defines the shows, and “item” defines the episodes. Once you have the file created, to add more episodes, you simply add another “item” pointing to a new file.

That’s how a podcast is structured.

Next, we’re going to tell you what you need to get your podcast up and running. There are two options. The first is what you will need if you want to do it all yourself. The second (and our preference) is the simpler route, which is to get a podcast host. These instructions presume that you already have your sermon, or other audio file, converted into MP3 format and ready to go.

To set up a podcast by yourself, you will need to do the following:

1: Find web space available for you to upload your media files to.

There are plenty of web hosts available for you to choose from. From Google, do a search for “Web Hosting”. I recommend getting a Linux/PHP based host – because they are simpler to configure than Microsoft based hosting. As a general rule, try to find the most web space available, with the greatest amount of traffic allotted for your site. As your podcast grows in popularity – you don’t want to get sacked with extra traffic fees.

Before settling for a host, it also is in your best interests to do a little research to make sure they have a decent reputation. Lots of hosts over-sell their plans in order to get more business. There are lots of horror stories I’ve read of people that found their websites censured for excessive traffic when they were nowhere near the limits their plan advertised. A little research can help you avoid falling victim to an unscrupulous host.

2: Upload your media files (mp3 files, pictures and video files) to your new host.

You will most likely transfer your media files to your host through what’s called FTP. FTP is “File Transfer Protocol”. On Windows, I like http://www.wise-ftp.com/ “Wise FTP” by AceBit the best. On Macintosh, my favorite is http://cyberduck.ch/ - Cyberduck.

One thing to keep in mind is whether or not your media files are supported by your web hosting company. If you’re simply podcasting your audio sermons, MP3 is pretty much universally supported. If you’re podcasting video files (M4V or MP4), you might need to configure your server to recognize those files. This is done via what’s called a “mime type” and is set up in a file called .htaccess on your web server.

To find out more information, if you need it, google “.htaccess mime types” for a detailed explanation.

3: Once you have uploaded the files, and thereby know where the files are located, it’s time to create the newsfeed.

Make sure that your newsfeed mimics the format we showed you earlier. If you follow that format, you should be good to go. Create your channel, and add all of your items.

Once you have created your newsfeed file, upload it to your server as well. Test it out by going to http://www.feedvalidator.org. If your feed comes back invalid, it will give suggestions as to how to fix your feed. If it comes back saying the feed is valid, then you’re good to go! Start submitting it to channels like yahoo, and the iTunes music store.

Those are all of the steps required to get a podcast up and running, if you wish to do it all yourself!

The other alternative is to get what is called a podcast host.

Podcast hosts take care of all of the hosting, newsfeed creation and testing for you. When you contract a podcast host, you don’t need to worry about file types, ensuring that your feed is valid, or finding web space. They take care of all of that for you. With a podcast host, you simply upload the media file, give it a name and a description, and you’re done.

After a few months of maintaining our podcast and constantly updating the feed to reflect new additions to our podcast, this is the direction we chose to go. It really simplified the production process, and actually ended up costing us less per month than what we were paying before.

There are a lot of podcast hosts out there offering different packages. When determining which one to contract – look at the following things:

1: How much do they charge vs. how much space do you get for your podcasts?

2: Do they limit your bandwidth? (This is particularly important. One host we went with charged for bandwidth beyond a certain point, and it cost us a pretty penny.) It’s best to get a podcast host with “unmetered bandwidth”. This means they don’t charge you extra if your podcast becomes popular.

3: Do they support transferring of the podcasts to another domain? This is also very important. If you, for whatever reason, become dis-satisfied with the service or want to transfer it to another location, will they facilitate this for you? We had to recreate two of our podcasts from scratch because one host wouldn’t give us the ability to redirect our existing podcast to our new host.

4: Do they have good technical support for questions you may have?

Our favorite podcast hosts are http://www.avmypodcast.com and http://www.libsyn.com (although Libsyn has some issues with downtime.) Both have unmetered bandwidth and great plans available for very reasonable charges. AvMyPodcast is especially great for it’s technical support, and includes automatic iTunes and Yahoo submissions. They even have an online tutorial to teach you how to podcast.

Whether you decide to go it yourself, or contract a podcast host, it’s definitely worth getting into podcasting. Our weekly subscribers have grown dramatically, and a good number of people have become aware of our little church as a result of our podcast. It also gives me joy that my daughter has ours FIRST on her list, too!

Good luck, and happy podcasting!

I am starting out on pearl and need an English tutorail

I like the site below and use it as a reference. I used the learning perl oreilly book to learn perl. A lot of the time you can google anything you need there are tons of pages on perl.

Website building, web development, how to build a website, domain name, hosting, web design

The reader will learn here how to build his own website even he is a newbie in web development.

Building a simple website is easy, even for non-IT people. If you have the following basic requirements, then you can create your own website.

Basic Requirements:

Basic knowledge of HTML
Computer set & Internet Connection
Website Design Layout or Template
Website Content
Domain Name and Web Space or Host

Let me explain to you each of the above requirements:

Basic Knowledge of HTML:

A website is composed of one or more web pages. A page layout is produced by using html codes or tags. HTML means Hyper-Text Markup Language and tags are enclosed by ‹ and › signs. If you have zero knowledge of html, well here is the outline of a web page:

Outline of a web page:

‹!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN”
“http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd” ›

‹html›

‹head›

‹title›

Here you will place the title of the page. The texts here are displayed at the topmost left of a browser or web page.

‹/title›

‹meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”text/html; charset=iso-8859-1″ /›

‹meta name=”keywords” content=”you must type here the main keywords of your content like this keyword1,keyword2,keyword3,etc. Words that are frequently used in this page content must be included here for search engine optimization.” /›

‹meta name=”description” content=”You must type here the summary of this page content using the page’s main keywords for search engine optimization” /›

‹meta name=”author” content=”Your name here” /›

‹meta name=”copyright” content=”The year you built your website” /›

‹style type=”text/css”›

This is the place for Cascading Style Sheets or known as CSS. CSS defines the styles you will use in your web page such as font color and size of the text, background image, boxes, etc. These are effected in the body but most of the style definitions affects only those areas where you use them.

‹/style›

‹/head›

‹body›

Here you will implement the layout using style definitions you have made in the “style” section. Without putting anything here the page will be blank except for the title that will appear at the topmost left of the page. You will also place here the content of your website. It may be mixed of texts, images, audios and videos.

‹/body›

‹/html›

The above must be saved as a html page with extension of html or htm. Your homepage or the starting page must be named as index.html or index.htm. When you open a site like this site, http://www.freetipsandwits.com, it will automatically search and open the index page.

To see it with your two eyes, copy the above html codes from ‹html› to ‹/html›, then open your Notepad and paste it. In the Notepad or its equivalent, Click File - Save - Type mywebpage.html or mywebpage.htm - Click All Files - Click OK. Then in the Windows Explorer or its equivalent, find the the file and open it…See the power of HTML. That’s your first web page. With those few codes, you can create your own web pages. For more basics of creating a web page, click here.

Computer set & Internet Connection:

This is a computer equipment (desktop or laptop computer) that has a modem and internet connection (Dial-up or DSL). This means that you can access or surf the web. You will be using an internet connection to upload your web page files and to browse your website in action after uploading. You may use your own computer or you may rent in internet cafe, whichever is more comfortable to you.

Website Design Layout or Template:

Website Layout Design is the graphical presentation of your site in a web page. Like in http://Freetipsandwits.com, the page layout is composed of header box, right box, left box and footer box. The design layout will be your guide where to place your content in every web page.

If you don’t have time to learn html or let’s say, you are not interested in learning html, you still have options to have your web design layout. Buy or get free web templates from the web. If you have a budget and you want to have a design based on your preference, you may hire a coder or simply buy a web template.

Website Content:

This is the meat of the website. Your website is nothing without a content. It is like a house without people and furnishings. People are looking for contents. They want something from your website.

The content is the physical presentation of the purpose of your website. It may be personal (about your personal life or life of other people), community (a forum or discussion of a group of people), free or non-profit services (a directory, educational, tutorial, freebies, etc.) or commercial (for selling or marketing products or services).

Your content may include texts, graphics, sounds, videos, programs, etc. depending on your purpose or on what you like other people or visitors to see in your site and on the available materials with you. But, putting sounds, videos or softwares make require an advanced knowledge of html and scripts.

You may source your content materials from the web, free or priced. Check our directory of freebie sites or use Google and type “free web templates”, “web templates”, “web template freebies” or other keywords that are appropriate based on your need:

Domain Names and Web Space:

Domain Name:

A domain name usually consists of two or more parts, separated by dots. This is the unique text name corresponding to the IP address of the website. Example is http://www.ezinearticles.com. The rightmost label “com” is what we called the top-level domain (TLD). Other TLDs are .com, .net, .org, .biz, .ws, .tv, .info,etc… Sub-domains are the labels on the left next to TLD and are dependent on the domain to the right. “ezinearticles” is the sub-domain (second-level domain) and dependent of the “.com” domain.

Choose a descriptive name for your site to give short information to your target visitors on what your site is all about. You may use your own name too if you want to. For search engine optimization, it is advisable that you name your site with descriptive keywords. Each word must be separated by hyphen or dash like “best-online-business-ever.com”, “affiliate-marketing-guide.com” and “affiliate-program-reviews.com”.

To have your own second-level domain name, you have to pay for registration on a yearly basis with ICANN-accredited website-registrars but you may register a name for a number of years paying the equivalent amount. TLD’s have different prices some are cheaper than others.

You may also go for free sub-domain with sites offering free hosting but it will be a third-level domain like in geocities, your website address will be http://yourchoicename.geocities.com or in tripod, it will be http://yourchoicename.tripod.com. Your domain name will be depedent of geocities or tripod.

If you really want to build a website using your own tradename and would like to earn profit from it, it would be better to at least invest a little amount of money. You may check if the name you plan to give to your site is still available by using search engine and type “domain name registration” or “register domain name”.

Web Space and Hosting:

The next thing you need is the web space where you will place your registered domain name and other stuff for your site. Normally, domain names are offered with web space. If you register a domain, you will be given a free but limited web space.

Usually, a free web space is ad-supported and subject to a number of restrictions. Meaning, the hosting site will put an ad to your site without paying you and it will not allow you to do or put some stuff.

So, if you want a clean web space where you can do whatever you want “legally”, it is advisable that you lease your own web space. It is also offered on a yearly basis but you may also lease it for a number of years.

You may buy or lease domain or web space separately. You may register a domain name from one website and lease a web space from another. If you register domain name separately from web host, then you need to link the namservers from your host to your domain name. The nameservers will be given to you by your host and you need to enter this to your domain DNS (Domain Name Servers) setup.

For more paid and free domain name registrants and web hosts, use search engine and type “domain name and webhosting” or “domain name registration” or “web hosting”.

The following are the easy, simple and complete procedures to build your own website:

Determine your purpose of your website.

Prepare all the materials to be placed in your site as your website content.

Plan the lay-out or design of your site. Get free or buy template.

Create web pages. Learn our tutorial on creating your own web page or use ready-made web templates.

Name your site with keywords relevant to your site content.

Check the availability.

Buy domain name and web space or get free web-space.

Upload your web pages. You may upload your web files by web browser or by ftp. Check your with your host for instruction on how to do it.

Check your website live. Check all the links if all are working fine.

Submit your site to search engines and directories to inform the world that you have built your own website.

Now you build your own website and start making money online.

aside from rosetta stone, do you know a good language tutorial software? i dont mind if it's not free, as long as it doesnt require high computer specs

My college uses tell me more. My goal was to become fluent so it was perfect for me and I bought their individual version. It has a lot of different activities: picture/word association, videos, dialogues,…, includes also grammar and conjugation. It has also more content than any other language software. Their speech recognition is great so you can have a dialogue with the computer. You can contact them to get a free demo and also ask for a Rosetta Stone demo to compare, visit independent reviews websites(About.com, …).

The best way to learn a language would be through immersion, visiting these countries. Learning a language will require some time. In addition to software, you can have books which are useful as well. Audio CDs like Pimsleur for instance might help you out but you cannot get any feedback on your pronunciation so I did not like it so much

Well, I want to learn programming, and I have decided to choose Python as my starting language.
I have no former programming experience at all, so I am looking for easy to follow beginner tutorials that explain all the basic statements/commands thuroughly

Where can I find a good one? Which ones worked for you, when you were starting out?
Only looking for online tutorials, and (possibly) books I could get from a library.

The Python website has a huge amount of links and material for beginner tutorials.

http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/NonProgrammers

One of them should suit your learning style.
