This Blog Entry has made me want to own a TabletPC... It's a shockwave video showing how to use your TabletPC for Mind-Mapping presentations. The stylus 'shortcuts' and all to do mind-mapping... so cool... too cool... Even though I would not be using mind-mapping in anyway

-"my attention span isn't 23min long leh"
Haha. Where did you watch the video to? I watch it for quite a bit thinking to myself 'I want a TabletPC! I want a TabletPC!' then stopped watching when I realize that I don't do mind-mapping.

Do lecturers in Polytechnics and Universities now use TabletPCs for their lessons? Seems like 'should' be the in thing.

i did finish watching. just that my concentration went down after like 11 minutes? and the software is bloody expensive too!

well i think all my tutors in JC used tablets for lectures. not for in-class things though. but it's convenient from them. especially when they want to doodle in examples. what i coulnd't understand is,why do they always write with the screen up, when they can actually put it down and use it as though they were scribbling onto paper!

I think they want to show off to the class that they are writing on a Tablet... So ALL your tutors in JC use tablets? Cool. I bet they are already doing it for Secondary school. Then it would be so fun for me to teach in school if I go become a teacher. Gadgets... gadgets... gadgets...
