Paper Jamz: New Touch Sensor Guitar for Young Rockers
For Christmas, the only thing that Captain Computer wanted was a guitar. Trying to find a decent guitar for a 4 year old that wasn’t a ukelele proved to be a challenge. Thinking that we needed to preserve our eardrums and that perhaps it was a phase, Santa brought him something else

What’s the point of the semantic web?
I was scanning journal tables of contents as usual this week and it occurred to me that there must be a better way to find relevant and timely research information that would be of interest to Sciencebase readers…and, of course, out pops the following title: Technically approaching the semantic web bottleneck Sounded, perfect…kind of…but what’s the semantic web, why’s there a bottleneck and what can be done to lube the tube? Tim Berners-Lee’s original vision for the semantic web was that information would be just as readable (and understandable) to a person or to a machine.

Five Ways to Document a Death
By Gena Philibert Ortega So much of what we do as genealogists is about finding and confirming the milestones of our ancestor’s lives. Finding dates and places for a birth, marriage and death seems at the onset to be an easy task, but sometimes that can be a task that takes years. We sometimes get caught in a rut thinking that the only way to verify an event is by the use of one type of document, when in reality there are several sources that provide you with the information that you need.
