This beginner’s guide recommends apps and features to get you started in building your library. Though the focus on is on the iPad, because it’s the device I’ve used for the last two years to build my e-library, the recommendations apply to other devices, including the Amazon Kindle and the Barnes and Nobel Nook. But as I will later explain, the iPad offers some extra features that you will eventually find useful over other devices. - Stephen Dale

"Learning networks come in a variety of different kinds. First, there is the personal variety, the personal learning network or PLN, which the individual person sets up and maintains, and provides him or her with  a view of or a lens on the outside world. Examples are the well-known social media such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, or more specialised social media, tied to your specific needs. The second kind of learning network takes the opposite perspective, not from the inside out but from the outside in. They are organisational learning networks and they try to cater for a more or less well delineated group of users. - Stephen Dale

"We feature hundreds of posts here in a weekly basis that we think you should be reading. However, we wanted to take things a set further today and share a number of the best posts from the last year that you simply have to read. These are the timeless classics that are not time sensitive and could be read at any time of the year. With so many tech blogs spitting out so much content on a daily basis, it can be hard to find the brilliant posts and you’ll find great value in bookmarking all of the posts. You are not going to get through all of these in one day, but flick in and out over them over the next few weeks and you’ll find yourself learning from the best thinkers who have taken the time to share their knowledge and wisdom." - Stephen Dale

It is estimated that approximately 70 per cent of Europe’s wealth is in the hands of the over 50s. In the last 20 years, consumption within that age bracket has risen three times as fast as the rest of the population. By the same token, the latest research carried out in Ireland showed that only 25 percent of over 50s in Ireland have IT skills. Yet there is no massive push on the part of advertisers and marketers to get older people online. Surely with the massive growth of online advertising and by extension online shopping, one would assume more of that “old money” would be aimed at?" - Stephen Dale
