EdNA Online

EdNA, Aug 04, 2003

Australians have something they can be proud of today as EdNA unveails its lush new website. I cannot gush enough, nor can I write enough about it in this tiny space. So I will quote from the press release, and trust me, I will be coming back to this topic. "The new generation EdNA Online provides a host of new features and services including distributed search, MyEdNA personalisation, online community spaces for education and training groups, and web services in XML/RSS format for EdNA Online content including news, newsletters, noticeboards, search and browse. The new generation EdNA Online uses flexible, scalable technologies such as XML and RSS which rely on structured data for maximum benefit. 'RSS is short for Rich Site Summary - some call it really simple syndication,' says Mr White. 'The importance is this - it enables us to deliver the EdNA Online store of content and information, which belongs to all Australians, to any education and training site. This means that other websites can leverage work already undertaken by the EdNA collaboration.'" I hope everybody involved in national learning repository projects take a long, close look at EdNA... and learn.
