Getting packed and ready to leave to travel to Halifax, Nova Scotia to present a paper I wrote with a colleague, Robin Yap, at AERC2007. The paper, Critical HRD—Need for Emergence of Critters in Adult Education, is available online, as are all the peer-reviewed papers that will be presented there. Finishing our presentation, and considering making a small sign for my laptop alerting people to the fact that I will be live blogging the conference.
This is not needed, but it may raise awareness of this research project I am undertaking and may in fact help bridge the gap between research and practice.

SixApart announced today that the beta version of Movable Type 4 is now available for download and testing. It seems there will be major changes in MT4. Let's see–OpenID, Open Source, static pages, a new WYSIWYG interface, wow. 
Has MT caught up with all the other development out there finally? Looks like I may be glad I stayed with the program rather than the WordPress / Drupal switch.
I just hope, with all these promised changes, that it can be installed without hiring an army of developers. That is one of the largest hidden expenses of MT to date.
