Elenurm international networking course

Homework structure

2011-08-08T10:23:00.001+03:00

The aim of the course and blog is also to introduce and discuss how business students can find suitable virtual networking tools and build up cross-border communities of practice to support their business and career.
Student homeworks describing international networks that are useful for business students for knowledge sharing, for identifying international career paths and international business opportunities are posted to this site. Homework should be1000-1500 symbols. 4000 is in this weblog max limit for the comment format but be shorter! It should be very informative text.
I recommend that each network overview could be structured in the following way:

1.Name of the network,how to access it (URL of internet-based networking tools)
2.Aims and functions of the network and/or the community in this network
3.Added value for business students
4.Some example, how the author of the posting or his/her friends have used or can use the network or community inside a larger network for business transactions, developing a new business or for acquiring business-related knowledge.

Please send your homework as a comment to this post before the second class. Be prepared in the second class to demonstrate the network you have described and to comment briefly (5-7 minutes) your homework. If you do not see your comment, the automatic spam detection for comments that has been enabled by Google Blogger.com software has sent you message to spam. But do not worry, I shall publish your homework in this blog if it is not spam :-) . Do not upload the same text again. But you can still think what are the words in your text that Google considers to be spam ....

Problem with sending large comments to Blogspot blog

2010-10-07T23:39:00.000+03:00

Cause: Problem is caused by enormous URL Blogspot tries to engage after You push the Publish Comment button.
Solution: Once You get an error message (Request-URI Too Large) You should review an URL in Your browser’s address bar and manually remove component named token and it’s oversized value, which together look like &token=dCI0GgYrn3ntOm4hZ7XWtaj2xtbkQJKb3l2ZBS… (few hundred characters more).
After You’re done, the address should look somewhat like following:
https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6232352899247523382&postID=1177828987144679327&page=1
After You have cleaned up a URL, you can strike Enter to have Your comment finally posted.
The background: According to blogspot support forum, the problem has been outhere since June 2010. Please check out this support forum thread:

Do not upload the same comment several times - Google spam filter will direct it to the spam inbox.
