When a simple blog will suffice (was: [RFP: Request for Web Project Proposals])

[Luby Liao]

In your case, a simple blog will suffice.  You can create a blog by simply emailing to po...@posterous.com.  The first time you do this, you will be asked to set up your account.  Subsequently you can write your blog by simply emailing to po...@posterous.com.  Please also set up a blog by visiting blogger.com if only for comparison.  

I have always hoped that local experts would take the initiative of offering workshops to teach people to publish to the web.  Short of this, I am happy to fly in to give a workshop to get people started.  To make this cost-effective, the number of people attending the workshop should be big enough. 

Let me know if you have more questions.  Cheers, Luby

=====
A friend of mine had help me establish my web page  some 10 years ago.

It has been worked well.  I usually e-mail him what I like to posted/updated and then, a few days later, he will put up what I sent to my web page.

Recently, he has all sort of hardships that seem can not continue maintain the web page.  A lot of times, my web page are no longer working.  He could not even respond any of my e-mail requests, the request of instructing me on how I should do to have myself able to continue and sustain my web page.

Could you (or your student in the class project) able to instruct/educate me to enable me to do it myself?  I consider myself as an old dog that don't know Hi-tech.  I hope you can help me even if it should  not be free.  Looking forward to your help.

Subject: [NATPA Forum] RFP: Request for Web Project Proposals

I will be teaching a Web Development course in the fall. I have between 10 to 15 talented students.  With this message, I am requesting interesting and substantial web project proposals for my students.  Feel free to propose a project that you wish my students could help you with, for free.

When students work on a project that someone will use, they have a sense of mission, responsibility, excitement, and pride.  Otherwise they treat their projects as homework assignments.  This thinking motivates the RFP.

Even if your proposed project is not adopted, we may offer opinions or solutions in the form of blogs or messsages.

All proposals arrived before Oct 1 will be considered.

What is the level of the course?  I expect it to end with a coverage of JQuery, Django, and Google App Engine.

To submit a proposal, please simply reply to this message.  I would appreciate it if you broadcast this message to Taiwan-centered groups or organizations.   Thank you, Luby
