I wrote recently about some of those issues in this article. A bonus for this session is that I think learning to use Captivate on Android will also have applications to creating apps for mobile in general. I do wish this was titled Captivate for Android and iPhone.

There are a couple of caveats to pay attention to: If you use any special coding, flash, video, or widgets with your authoring tool, you can introduce browser compatibility issues. If you do have a browser compatibility problem, then you are often reliant on the tool vendor to fix it.

Quizmaker is not alone, I've had this issue with other content I've used in Saba. As most developers know, each LMS has a different "attitude" and behavior. Out of the box, Quizmaker was not exiting well when the user clicks the "Finish" button at the end of the quiz. To fix this problem, I had to edit how Quizmaker closes.

Also, there were some technical issues that occured as well that I'll share. This is not an ideal long term strategy but it works well as a stopgap until the LMS is up and running. More to come. I will share some of the feedback I received from a survey and from talking with the learners.

Three years ago I wrote a blog post about how technology may address these issues in the future. And my goodness, how many times have I had to retype another tweet because my "i" became a "k" when my finger was slightly off the correct letter. Mobile technology has come a long way in that amount of time. Today, I'm a huge Android fan.

However, many of these reasons are the result of a poor implementation or IT issues that were not well thought out. Storage space is too limited. Permissions are always getting messed up. Some of these reasons are legit. Regardless, I bet I'd hear the same reasons mentioned by other organizations. What are the Best Practices?

The plan for this blog is to discuss issues that relate to my profession. I maintained that pretty well until Facebook emerged and became a much better tool for managing relationships and friends. I like the concept of sharing thoughts and knowledge with others. I think it makes the world a better place. ;).

I was pleased to see this topic come up because it is good to catch significant contextual issues early in the project. Instead, if started with questioning the organization of the project into two sections. Without context, learners will be confused about the purpose of the training.

I know what projects people are working on so I can ask them about issues while they are still fresh on the mind. I do think there is value in seeing what people are up to day to day. It can give me insight into improving some of my day to day activities. But I don't think this is golden nugget of Twitter.

Disclaimer: as of 8/31/11, I found this service not working correctly (due to sync issue?). I like this because I always had a Facebook friend online trying to chat with me late at night. While I wanted to keep this friend, I didn't want to chat every night before bed! This occurs when you have Gmail and Google+ logged in at the same time.

This seems to be the issue of our time.where do we draw the line between information value and information distraction? Am I alone? Doesn't all this information on the web give you a headache? Do you really feel comfortable relying on filters and keywords to guide what you learn? Each generation deals with this to a certain extent.
