Moodle in healthcare
by Helen Foster.
Moodle is not only used by schools, colleges and universities around the world - an increasing number of healthcare organisations are putting it to good use too!
The Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust in south east London, UK, has been using Moodle for two years. Their site now has almost 200 courses and over 3,000 active users.
According to Jeff Burge, Learning & Development lead for Oxleas, "We manage all of our statutory and mandatory training, Continuing Professional Development and e-learning with Moodle, and it has been a huge success for us."
"As a public body our performance is measured by, amongst other things, our achievement against certain governance standards. The NHS Litigation Authority awarded us a full score for our Level 2 assessment in January of this year, and also highly commended our systems, helped in no small part by our utilisation of Moodle."
For further details of Oxleas' success story, and for more experiences of Moodle in healthcare, please see the discussion Moodle in healthcare in the Moodle stories forum.

ASUS' 1015P, 1016P and 1018P Leaked With Impressive Tales of 14-Hour Battery Life [NetBooks]
Three of ASUS' CeBIT-bound Eee PCs have been revealed early, and they couldn't be further from the plastic Fisher Price-look of their original models if they tried. A brushed metal finish, wide touchpad and comfortable-looking keyboard all seem present.
Blogeee doesn't have many details on them, and only pictures of the 1015P and 1018P models, but so far we can spot tiled keyboards, and what looks like 10-inch displays. The 1018P is only 18mm thick apparently, and will have a fingerprint reader and 10-hour battery life along with USB 3.0 ports.
The 1016P, which Blogeee doesn't have images of, has a supposed battery life of 14 hours. Say what? I think we're looking at the most pricey Eee PCs yet. [Blogeee]

Flavors.me Is a Simple and Elegant Personal Portal [Personal Promotion]
If you're looking to set up an elegant portal for your online identity that brings together social networks and other aspects of your online presence, Flavors.me is as simple and easy to use as it gets.
Photo by Tyson.
Flavors.me is intended to act as a splash page for your virtual identity, routing viewers towards the aspects of your online persona you want to share. You can pull from over a dozen services including Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, LinkedIn, Tumbl.r, Last.fm and more.
Rather than mire you down in the guts of coding a page, Flavors.me offers a simple drag and drop interface with menu selections for a variety of things ranging from fonts to positioning the background photo. Check out the video below to see it in action from initial sign up to completed product:
As we mentioned above, it really doesn't get much easier than that when it comes to designing a simple splash page for your online persona. If you're planning on setting up a Flavors.me page you'll definitely want to check out the directory section to see how users are using the simple elements of Flavors.me to create some really catchy pages.

Wiimote Proton Pack Mod Shows Both Dedication and Indifference For Graphical Capability [Ghostbusters]
This man, Jack Rossi, created a simulation proton pack + thrower so he can play the Wii version of Ghostbusters with as much realism as possible. This is the result.
I gotta admire him for his preference of playability over having this-gen graphics. And for finding a use for all that junk he had lying around his house. [GBFans via Destructoid via Nerd Aproved]

Corsair Flash Padlock 2 USB Drive Has Software and Hardware Encryption for the Ultra Paranoid [USB]
I don't save any sensitive information or photos to flash drives—even if they're encrypted. I'm just too paranoid about losing them. Corsair's Flash Padlock 2 USB drive might change my mind though with it's clever hardware based encryption.
The Padlock 2 not only has a physical PIN pad, but it also has 256-bit AES data encryption. Combined this makes it one rather secure 8GB flash drive. There's no pricing information yet. [Corsair]

SelfImage Creates Backups of In-Use and Non-Windows Disks [Downloads]
Windows: Backing up just your data is better than no backup at all, but creating a complete disk image allows you to restore not just your data but your entire operating system and all your settings. SelfImage can help.
SelfImage is an open-source tool for creating disk images. Not only can you create a simple disk image of an inactive partition but you can also create images of partitions in active use and even partitions not recognized by Windows. This allows you to use SelfImage to not only back up your Windows partition from Windows but also to create images of partitions that Windows doesn't normally recognize like a Linux and Mac OS X partition on a multi-boot system.
SelfImage is open-source, Windows only. Thanks Mike-RaWare!

You're Never Too Old to Tweet [Retromodo]
This Commodore VIC-20 is running software from a cassette tape, has only 5 KB of RAM, and a processor that runs at 1 MHz. Yeah, it's vintage. But it's also the first VIC-20 to tweet.
Using software called TweetVER (short for Tweeting from a Vintage ComputER), the folks at the PC Museum will be accessing Twitter from this VIC-20. You can read the first tweet on Saturday February 20th at 11am EST by following the museum's Twitter account. (There appear to be some test tweets from a modern computer on the page, so disregard those.)
While we don't think much about accessing Twitter from any one of our desktops, it should be kept in mind that the average computer today runs on about "3000 MHz and contains 2,097,152 KB." This translates to about "419,430 times the memory power and 3000 times the speed" of a VIC-20. And despite all that, grandpa VIC-20 is still ready to tweet. [PC Museum]
