I could not attend this year the full week of workshops and conferences, including MKM 2008, and going on now in Birmingham but I found out that the Jacobs JEM partners are there and are blogging about it. I found this because I was going through the posts archived under Planet JEM.

After reading Murray's blog and getting the invitation ID, I managed to download the stylesheets that should convert OOML to MathML2.0. Now I just need to figure out how to get these working on the parallels installation of Word.

I have been using the Zemanta firefox plugin for a while now and now the Drupal module is installed on the JEM portal. Zemanta uses the semantic web to scout for images and links that might be useful when you are writing a blog entry. I think the idea is a good one and worth of explorations from the point of view of mathematics, say by integrating search engines and smart scientific text analyzers to suggest possible connections.

Did you notice the live feed monitor, on the left column, under the "Online Now" header? We just added it yesterday to show you how traffic comes to our JEM pages, what pages are hit mostly, by which search phrases (some puzzling ones too). You can also see the map of the traffic, generated live.

I was very frustrated by the podcast page of Mika since the movies never played on my preferred Firefox browser under Linux. I complained to him and he added the disclaimer These podcasts require QuickTime. They will not run on a generic player. to his Calculus podcasts page.
