Hilarious! At the "third day of Christmas" junction, it sounded more like a wine glass than a coffee cup being knocked over!?

Did you know that the name Santa Claus was Anglicized from “Sinterklaas,” the Dutch word for Saint Nicholas, famous gift-giver and protector of children? And, between 1931-1964, the Coca-Cola Company's Haddon Sundblom painted new Santa illustration…

Try some topical interactive fun - that's augmented reality to you - and print off this card to get your novelty Christmas gift via your webcam. A great source of entertainment while the turkey's in the oven.

Why texting and driving don't mix

Studies show that drivers overestimate their ability to multi-task behind the wheel. This game measures how your reaction time is affected by external distractions. Regardless of your results, experts say, you should not attempt to text when driving.

It's a good interactive game to help highlight the perils of texting whilst driving.

New Media Corp's The 12 Tweets of Christmas #8


In the words of that great song, the weather outside is frightful, and so, we thought a couple of nice Indian takeaways would give you a nice, warm feeling.

These two clips are absolutely hilarious so share with your favourite Auntie-ji and anyone else who might need warming up today.

Arvind, it’s a fantastic idea and it’s one that I’ve been pondering since you posted it yesterday.
Firstly, I’m not aware of anything that already exists.
Could online networking be the next step in the ‘outreach’ (academic/SME engagement) evolution? Personally speaking, I feel it’s the ideal vessel. I’ve never been comfortable with ‘speed networking’ events or the touchy feely participatory ice-breakers at networking events.
Through forums such as these you can peruse those in the ‘room’ via their profile, identify exactly who you wish to meet and have an exchange in a relaxed manner.

The concept of linking into the Business School is a gem. ‘Business’ is the commonality across all organisations from the sole trader to the government. (OK so a sole trader can’t be termed an organisation but I’m sure you get what I mean.) It can always be done better and more efficiently.
Accessing the academic knowledge base and creating new links via online networking seems the obvious next step.
