#WIKISOO is the best

I decided to write this post in wiki language..so here it goes

Disambiguation:

If you are wondering what the title means, look at the first four letters and you will realize that I am talking about wikipedia.WIKISOO is short for WIKIpedia School Of Open. Thanks Pete and Sara for making this a wonderful experience.

Digital Footprint:

I made my own user page as a part of this course and made an appearance on wikipedia. I have a talk page too (if you look at the picture) so feel free to let me know if I did a good job on that (or even a crappy one).


Learning, Copyright, Open Educational Resources:

Wikipedia is social but is an encyclopedia  in the first place. We were taught on how to write articles, use images without copyright infringement and use open educational resources (everybody benifits and nobody gets hurt).

Guest talks:

We had a lot of guests (just like professors at graduate school ) introducing us to various aspects of wikipedia we could explore, learn from and contribute to.

Final Project:

I am off now to work on my final project which is to improve the article on PRG4 and make it easier for people to understand (not to mention bring it to start class: in wiki language).

chumbak for a life lesson

Post two of my previously super unpopular blog:

Wedding journal day 2:
Day 1 has been so long and I forgot nothing about it. If you are intrigued I will put that up here in no time..

Enough of pre talk(desi prologue) let me get to my day now. I will bore you to death if I go through all my events. So here is the first of the ten good things I recapitulated before sleeping in for the day..

This picture here shows the hard work I put in to open a packet from chumbak and the result on the right..

After donkey work of 10 minutes and I get this in result....I am on cloud googol-1 (math joke of mine)..I will happily get inspired and will start working off to glory if my result is on these lines
Chumbak is awesome.. I recommend you get one of their products(shh im their anon PR person lol:D, just looking at them will cheer you up. Aah what lively pictures they have..!!

All you have to do is ask

I was so excited about my first dance workout and headed out to the Zumba class on a sunday(read no mood for anything else). The bodywise studio is just across the road and as accused often I was not dressed for the weather. Thankfully I got a ride to the international center, got through my orientation consuming quarts of diet soda conveniently ignoring the blabber.
While I felt like a titan being done early, I came out only to notice that it was snowing and I do not have a jacket. Icing on the cake, no buses sunday! I walked till the Co-op and realize that people sleep early weekdays as the campus was practically empty.

HuskyWatch

Srilaya's idea came to my rescue and all enlightened and congratulating myself I googled huskywatch. There it said"you don't have to walk home alone". There is a catch though--I would either have a walking escort on making that call or a ride to my apartment. Which one ?? I only had to wait to find out.

And guess what I didn't know I had to wait outside. Having missed my ride and not realizing it I called em back heated up to point their mistake out only to learn that the fault was all mine.

I scheduled another pick up and waited and at one moment I felt I had to go out. THERE it was! the vehicle waiting to pick me up. That was magic.
