Get your car to squeak: Second OLPC Game Jam
Today, Ace Institute of Management hosted the second OLPC Game Jam organized by OLE Nepal. Students and enthusiasts from various schools got a chance to learn the basics of Squeak to create simple applications. Participants were shown how to make a simple car game. Each participant had to get a car moving with a steering wheel controlling its motion. A simple script would then give it a more authentic game feel by making the car move faster on the track and decelerate when it strayed off the track.

Deploying Volunteers
You may have read Rabi’s recent post about the formative evaluation of our test schools Vishwamitra Ganesh and Bashuki. We are proud of the progress we have made and are now starting to focus on expanding OLPC to more Nepali schools in spring 2009. Our current plan is to expand from one district to five districts (equivalent to a state of province) and roughly 10-15 schools. Technical support for our current two schools within driving distance of the office has not been particularly challenging or time-consuming. However, supporting schools in five distinct regions of Nepal poses a tremendous challenge.

Due to lack of time I could not cover, “How to secure the network from such vulnerabilities” Which I hope to cover another time along with Web Server Security.
