Nandu Madhava is the founder-CEO of mDhil , a company that provides basic medical information services via mobiles in India , a service that is proving to be as invaluable as it is cost-effective. Responding to a call from Kiruba Shankar , a bunch of us got together and embarked on a project of interviewing all the TED India fellows. The way we went after them, they might well be referring to us as the TED Stalkers. But the ones who responded really gave us something to savor. | SIMPLY SPEAKING MARCH 22, 2009 Twittering for Sadness One of your main tasks is to provide an anti-view for everything in the Tweetosphere. In his relentless pursuit of sadness, Inkscrawl unearthed the Blogger’s Guide to Unhappiness. To have fun at my expense, he then suggested that I do a similar one for Twittering. Initially, I refused to fall for it. Then I reckoned, what the @, it’s the weekend after all. So here’s my list of nine (the Blogger’s Guide had eight, I had to be one up), 140 characters at a time. Twitter at least once every three minutes, if possible every minute. If everyone is idle, twitter that. humor twitter lists | | | | | |
| SIMPLY SPEAKING SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 Market Research 3.0 suppose the human mind is going to remain the perennial Holy Grail, but does “listening to conversations” and chatter on the Web provide a better insight than focus groups and surveys? Is your Facebook update you? Is what you search for online what you want in real life? Does your online behavior reflect your personality? Yes, if Kevin Randall at Fast Company is to be believed, as he ushers in Market Research 3.0 surely they could have come up with a more original term?), which includes, among others, a chilling, post-modern sounding concept, Sentiment Analysis. | SIMPLY SPEAKING OCTOBER 26, 2009  TED India Interview: Deepti Doshi At the same time, the entrepreneurial climate of India has provided incredible opportunity. We can work more quickly in these schools and are looking forward to our in these schools providing a demonstration effect to the government as well. It was Gaurav Mishra first, then Prayas Abhinav. Share her optimism - read on. Tell us a bit about the Escuela Nueva model. What makes it unique? | SIMPLY SPEAKING OCTOBER 16, 2009 Nonsense Learning Assembling such disparate pieces together will provide an absolutely award-winning piece of nonsense for the next group of learners. Earlier this year, Inkscrawl and I discovered how doodling helped learning and then, in the time-honored andragogical tradition of application, we put that theory into practice and thus came up with this piece titled Learning by Doodling. Hardly had the dust settled down on that than I discover, through another good friend, that nonsense sharpens the intellect. Yes, you read that right. So how do you use this breakthrough technique in your solutions? | SIMPLY SPEAKING DECEMBER 5, 2006  LCB Question for December: 2006 - 2007 Client organizations and learning providers continue talking about RoI on learning. The Learning Circuits Blog has gotten real ambitious now: their question of the month for December is actually three questions. And real tough ones, each of them. Anyway, here are my quick responses. Three points for each question, in the interest of brevity. Some personal, some not quite. Seriously. | | | | | | | |

SIMPLY SPEAKING | MONDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 2007 Questions, questions
Expecting the respondent to have analyzed these events in his/her mind and provide us with a processed response is a bit facile, not to mention more than a bit lazy. don’t expect a questionnaire to provide insight; I’d rather talk to the person face to face on an informal note for that. “What Questions Should We Be Asking?” asks the Learning Circuits Blog this month. That’s a neat one – I love the way the QotM is shaping up as a self-fuelling engine – we raise our own questions and we answer them ourselves. Collaboration in action, truly. Small pieces, loosely joined, if you will. MORE >> -
SIMPLY SPEAKING | THURSDAY, MAY 3, 2007 Widgets in eLearning
Could also provide the opportunity for learners to visualize their learning and share it with their co-learners. Came across Beth Kanter’s detailed post on the use of widgets to build online communities. Now web widgets have existed since 1995, but the recent wave of web 2.0 action has seen widgets come to the forefront. And Beth’s post is a very extensive piece on the different kinds of widgets, services, and applications, including a research report on what people thought what widgets can be used for. How can widgets be used in eLearning? Here are some possibilities. Polls. Chats. MORE >> -
SIMPLY SPEAKING | SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 2008 Neonode N2
that is tied to a service provider, the Neonode N2 is an unlocked device. It's a cell phone that claims to have been “designed for advanced simplicity”. The Neonode N2 looks a nifty device all right – a full-service GSM cell phone that is smaller than a credit card is worth a closer look. An optical touch screen mechanism and a specially designed user interface make this handset different from most others in the market. And, unlike a certain news-making cell phone device in the U.S. The company web site ( [link] ) has a neat video demonstrating how the Neonode N2 works. MORE >> -
SIMPLY SPEAKING | TUESDAY, MARCH 10, 2009 Loose Change
The new template also provides a wider line length, thus ensuring a smaller scroll bar. There are some cosmetic changes I have made to this blog over the past few days after staying unchanged for more than two years. To begin with, I have changed the template to ensure videos don't bleed on to the text in the sidebar, especially in Firefox. In an expression of extreme vanity, I have added a photograph to the About Me section. Also, I have added widgets linking to all my social networking hangouts - Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Shelfari. MORE >>
