Tutorials

I would like to announce that our site will now include tutorials on various technology-related subjects.  These tutorials will be listed under the menu item of the same name.  If you would like to see tutorials posted on other subjects then submit ideas to Gene.  Feel free to also submit your own tutorials if you would like to see them posted here.  As an aside, these tutorials are actually written in Google Docs and embedded here.  Enjoy and happy reading!

K12 Network Update

If anyone would like to see the progess of the upgraded bandwithd DOE is working to provide then check out http://ssl.doas.state.ga.us/PRSapp/PublicBidNotice?bid_op=094140041400-652-0000000992.  If there are no more vendor protests then AT&T will continue to be the service provider and the speed of the K12 Network will be doubled from 1.5M / school to 3M / school.  In addition to that, school systems will be able to purchase additional bandwidth through the state's contract.  One system that is in the know about the pricing told me that they would see about a 90% cost savings by using this contract as opposed to going with what had been offered to them via an RFP they had out.
