Annuncio spostamento blog


Ho deciso di muovere la mia pagina web accademica e il mio blog in un posto unico, e ho scelto di fare un blog e il sito con l'hosting gratuito su wordpress. Per favore, aggiornate i vostri feed reader al seguente indirizzo:

feed://feeds.feedburner.com/FedericoGobboBlogo

Se mai cambierò di nuovo, aggiornerò il feed, così voi non vi accorgerete di nulla. Analogamente, mi sono deciso a comprare un dominio che rimarrà anch'esso permanente:

http://federicogobbo.name

Tutto ciò che ho pubblicato sul blog di Blogspot rimarrà intatto perché già riferito nel web, perciò non ha senso toglierlo. Per non perdermi di vista, potete farvi vedere in qualche social network. Quelle a cui partecipo sono tutte listate a questo indirizzo.

Blog Change News


I moved my academic web page and my blog in one place, and they are both hosted (i.e., web page and blog) with the free hosting by wordpress. Please, update your feed readers with the following:

feed://feeds.feedburner.com/FedericoGobboBlogo

If I would ever change again, I will update the feed, so you won't notice. Analogously, I finally decided to buy a domain for me. This will act as a permanent url:

http://federicogobbo.name

Every post I published in the Blogspot blog will remain here as it is already spidered by the web. If you want to be in touch with me, consider to knock me via some social network. Mine are listed here.

Adventures in hi-fi... accelerated

I'm just come back from the R.E.M. concert in Milan. I live next to the Arena Civica, 5 minutes walk or so, the shortest trip for a concert I ever made in my life (I've seen R.E.M. live since the concert in Bologna 1999, and once I had a terrible trip to Rock Werchter Festival in Belgium in order to see them, so take it easy about my little walk).

It was a great concert. Most surprisingly for me, it was the re-evaluation of New adventures in hi-fi, the most underestimated album of the band from Athens, Georgia. In the first part of the concert they alternated songs from Accelerate, the new album, and that one, and they gave us a great energy. My favourite performances this night were The great beyond and Man on the moon. Moreover, I was delighted to hear again old time classics like The one I love, Orange crush and Driver 8: some of these songs date more than twenty years ago, but nevertheless they seem new and fresh. This night the sound of the band recalled the I.R.S. years, and the origins of the band: new and old songs were played in the old style, with a notable exception: Drive, which was played exactly in the style you find the original album, Automatic for the people.

So, I was very happy to be here again. And they felt very emotionated being in Italy again, they spoke a little of Italian, and, of course, they thank every man of the staff by his or her own name. That's being professional. The only bad note is about the supporters: Editors are just a British version of Interpol, nothing worth to be remembered, L'Aura are good but nothing to wow to.

Some people seem not to understand easily what an RSS is... perhaps this video will help.

Tablet Mac, I want you

Dopplr, per sapere dove sono

Oggi le mie pause pomodoro sono più produttive dei pomodori, che vengono continuamente interrotti! Ho letto sul blog di Luis Suarez che segnala ai suoi contatti i suoi - frequenti - spostamenti con Dopplr, servizio a cui mi sono immediatamente iscritto.

Per la cronaca, da settimana prossima sono a Ginostra fino a dopo ferragosto, perciò sarò difficilmente rintracciabile via rete...

Anne Baker malfermas la kunvenon en Amsterdamo


Anne E. Baker is a linguist at the University of Amsterdam, where she opened the conference about interlinguistics and esperantology. She gave us some useful insights for research in esperantology, especially about the language learning aspects in different cultural and linguistic contexts. I never thought about a comparison with sign languages, and I think no one has ever made explorations in this direction.

The ideal world of software mind mapping

Given that pen-and-paper mind mapping is a useful and effective idea in most cases, I want to share with you the vision of Eric Blue about the ideal world of software mind maps:

# There exists a standard mindmap format (Simple MindMap Notation?) that isn't tied to one particular product.

# This new format can be easily authored on multiple platforms (web, windows, linux, mac, and handheld devices), and can also be quickly created by average humans.

# Users can easily share their mindmaps with others, collaborate in real-time, and not be tied to a particular product (desktop or web-based).

# Users can host mindmaps themselves, and choose from a number of innovative mindmap presentation libraries that will allow them to embed their map in their website, blog, or intranet portal.

# Users can easily link their mindmaps together in a distributed fashion (no need for a central hosting provider). World-wide mind maps can grow organically, benefit from advances in the social and semantic web, and allow users to visually link, search, and share.

"Innovation is key: competition is a *good thing*, and users reap the creative benefits"

Blogfest made in Italy

Anche in Italia è arrivata la prima blogfesta (perché dobbiamo sempre usare i termini inglesi, anche quando potremmo non farlo?). Cito dal comunicato:
Il 12, 13 e 14 Settembre 2008 a Riva del Garda si terrà la prima BlogFest italiana: un evento che riunirà in un unico posto, per la prima volta, tutto ciò che in Italia gravita attorno alla rete, con particolare riguardo ai blog, al social networking e alle community. In sostanza: qualcosa che in Italia non è mai stato realizzato. Saranno tre giorni nei quali la Rete si radunerà per raccontarsi ed essere raccontata da chi la frequenta.
Un bell'evento, non c'è che dire... testimonianza di come le reti sociali possano nascere in rete e poi ancorarsi fuori dalla rete. Io però non ci sarò, mi sa che non ho più l'età per certe cose...

Uno dei migliori wikilibri italiani...

...è un manuale sull'esperanto. Scritto veramente bene, divertente (soprattutto negli esempi) e molto completo. Molto migliore dei corrispondenti manuali in inglese o francese. Chi l'avrebbe mai detto?

Konferenco pri esperantologio kaj lingvistiko en Amsterdamo

La Universitato de Amsterdamo estos baldaŭ (17-18 julio 2008) kunvenejo de kvardeko da reprezentantoj de universitatoj kie Esperanto kaj interlingvistiko estas instruataj, inklude mi.

Labora konferenco kunvokita de CED, la Centro de Esploro kaj Dokumentado pri Mondaj Lingvaj Problemoj, donos al la grupo okazon komune pridiskuti siajn studprogramojn, la kondiĉojn sub kiuj ili laboras en siaj diversaj institucioj, kaj plifortigon de kunlaboro – inkluzive bibliotekajn interŝanĝojn kaj interŝanĝojn de personaro.

La konferenco okazos laŭ invito de la lektorato pri Esperanto kaj interlingvistiko en la Amsterdama Universitato, kun aktiva subteno de la Fako pri Lingvistiko. La ĉefa motoro surloke estas d-ro Wim Jansen, kiu gvidas la lektoraton. D-ro Jansen gvidos konferencan laborgrupon pri studprogramoj, d-rino Sabine Fiedler gvidos laborgrupon pri administracio de programoj, kaj d-ro Ulrich Lins gvidos laborgrupon pri interŝanĝoj.

“Nuntempe la programoj pri Esperanto kaj interlingvistiko en diversaj landoj de la mondo laboras esence en izoleco,” diris Humphrey Tonkin, direktoro de CED kaj unu el la organizantoj de la konferenco; “Nia celo estas pliintensigi la konversacion inter la diversaj programoj por plifortigi iliajn poziciojn kaj doni reciprokan helpon.”

Programoj pri Esperanto kaj interlingvistiko estas ofte starigitaj de unuopaj aktivuloj en difinitaj universitatoj kaj mankas al ili kontinueco. Sekve, plekti ilin en la strukturojn de la koncernaj universitatoj estas tre grave. Ankaŭ iliaj iniciatintoj ofte ne scias kiel kaj per kiuj studmaterialoj oni instruas en aliaj universitatoj. CED esperas starigi komunikan reton inter la programoj.

La konferencon finance subvencias ESF (Esperantic Studies Foundation), nordamerika fondaĵo, kiu subtenas esplorojn pri interlingvistiko kaj internaciaj lingvaj problemoj. Oni kolektas materialon ĉe retpaĝaro de la konferenco, tiel ke eĉ tiuj, kiuj ne povos ĉeesti, povos disponigi detalojn pri studmaterialoj, referaĵojn, raportojn ktp. al la konferencanoj. Kontribuantoj de utiligebla materialo ankaŭ havos aliron al la nove starigita retpaĝaro.

Ho dimenticato di ricaricare in tempo il telefonino skype di 3

Ero alla ESSAP, e non ho ricaricato entro Giugno per essere abilitato a Skype in Luglio. Me ne sono accorto oggi, e ho ricaricato. E ora? Nisba: non si connette all'account skype, non ne vuol sapere. Mi rimbalza a una pagina web di 3 con la propsota di abbonarmi a un servizio extra:
In caso di mancata ricarica, puoi anche [che significa questo 'anche'? NDA] sottoscrivere un abbonamento X-Series, che include anche il servizio Skype.
Bah. Vi racconterò come andrà a finire. Spero prima di Agosto...

A lovely ESSAP this year...

ESSAP just finished, and I'm proud of the results, being a local co-organizer, with Matteo, Vieri and the guys of Agilmente. This year we hadn't the facilities of 2007, as XP2007 occurred in Como, and I was in trouble of having participants from Europe. Well, this year we had more than in 2007! And the atmosphere creted was lovely, also because me and Matteo decided not to come back home every night but to sleep at De Filippi, where most participants were (so, I could finally have the occasion to play Lupus In Tabula, finally). A lot of interesting persons came to bring their agile eXperiences, and everyone was happy with it: both PhD and graduate students and professionals, whatever high their knowledge in Agile was.

And, for the guys who love Enterprise 2.0 success stories, we organized all with two wikis: the first is private, and shared among the organizers, and the other is public, being the school web site. no more wasting time in mailing lists! Wikis rock, and they are an agile tool too!

Mapping and agile

A lot of people here at ESSAP asks me about mapping and agile; I've opened a small review in the wiki of my favourite books that I republish here:

Tony Buzan is the inventor of mind mapping, the most powerful brainstorming technique for individuals I've ever seen. He has published a lot of books, and this is my favourite: simple and easy, you will start mind mapping after 10 minutes. After some practicing, you can turn yourself to dialogue mapping, a technique invented by Jeff Conklin. Dialogue mapping is more focused on team brainstorming. If I'm allowed to use it, redudancy in discussion is drastically reduced and meetings lasts less time with more achieved results.
