Microsoft report on European internet consumption shows we are becoming web addicts rather than telly addicts (Dave Bailey: Computing, 08 Apr 2009),  Europeans will spend more time on the internet than watching television by June 2010, according to research by Microsoft. The report, Europe logs on: Internet trends of today and tomorrow, analyses online behaviour across Europe, and for 2010 predicts web consumption will average 14.2 hours per week, while TV programme watching will average 11.5 hours per week.

I suspect that this is true here in Malaysia of the younger generation and for many of the older generation too. My internet time greatly exceeds my TV time.

For the last year or so, we have been working at developing our Blended Learning Portal. After studying various solutions available, we have decided to use Moodle as our learning management system. We do not have any in-house experts nor do we have easy access to experts in the local community. We are learning to use the system by trial and error.
