In our teleconference today, John mentioned that he was installing Samba on workstations for his position. I offered to find documentation to help him out if he needed it. This dovetails nicely with my responsibilities, as I was able to post the resources I found onto Samba's page on the Social Source commons website.
BTW, if anyone else is looking for documentation for tools, let me know and I'll see what I can find.
Many CTC VISTAs are challenged to develop curriculum for new digital media programs with both adults and youth, most on limited software and hardware budgets.
For instance, in 2005 VISTA Morgan Sully developed a Do-It-Yourself Media Toolkit to work with classes at SDTC / Digital Media Project in San Diego, using only a simple HTML start page and free tools.
