I have read lifehacker.com for a number of years, but am getting increasingly disillusioned with the quality of articles on the website - today they hit a new low, with "How to steal ideas from a colleague". Any one have good suggestions for productivity-oriented blogs in the same vein but higher quality?

If anything shows the need for a European QA structure for Higher Education, it's this.

I am writing this post out of frustration - my home country and my adopted home are both in a state of political crisis, and both are there for the same reason - because our political elites have forgotten why they are there. Every day, just when I think things can't possibly get worst, they do, and so, here goes... a two part commentary, one on each country...written with the hope that I find some like-minded souls who would sympathise or postulate solutions.

The situation in Malta is simple enough - the government has a one seat majority, and one of its MPs has decided that he doesn't like the way things are run, and is ready to bring down the government to get is way.

Like much of Slovenia, I have spent the afternoon biting my nails as I watched the proceedings in Parliament - and saw the will of the people, the spirit of the constitution and even the rules of basic common sense successively trodden on, trampled and left out to rot. I'll take these in order:

Will of the People
Slovenia has just gone through a snap... more »

Recipe for an amazing holiday: stroll along a promenade in a medieval town at the top of a hill, itinerant artists performing throughout the streets, an incredible team of young volunteers motivated to organise an incredible event, good friends drinking with you to crazy bands till early in the morning - This is SMIAF San Marino, and I'm delighted to be here for the third year in a row! www.smiaf.org
