WordPress aggregator blog
Things just keep getting better in world WordPress… over 100,000 downloads of WordPress 1.5 and now Robert from infOpinions gets a WordPress aggregator up and running.

Blogging in work guidelines
Keeping up the business blogging / blog policy idea (is it about time that I got some categories… naw, I’ve got search and I’m pretty predictable in my vocabulary) can I echo the praise for Random Acts of Reality’s How To Blog And Not Lose Your Job. Well worth a read in considering policy / …

Knowledge Workers – academia and the Google 20%
Michael posts a coupla interesting thoughts on the Scoble & Tony Chang discussion about whether Google’s 20% of time to explore areas of interest (which Tony likes & thinks works for various reasons) that are of benefit to Google and the MS alternative favoured by Scoble – ‘work on what you actually want to work …

My most-basic Moodle thoughts
Was asked by email what I thought of Moodle, this is my very very quick answer from a ‘kinda’ user perspective, am I off the mark?
