Documents and their properties

Whenever I receive a document, i would also look for the date (among other things). I strongly believe that it is so much easier for everybody to get the date straight away rather than getting someone to conduct a carbon dating procedure. Everything goes by dates anyway. Your date of birth, marriage, death, exam, your first date, the creation of this world. Something amiss?

The Demise of Reliability

In addition to the failure to connect to ibnukhaldun to upload my edited pages [1], the kulliyyah portal which is currently being served by an outdated and very old unit is encountering similar problems since launching i.e. consistent, regular, expected breakdown [2]. The consistency, regularity and meeting expectations are indeed elements of quality. Let's see if any of the quality guru can endorse this.


Note:
[1] The staff website is at a miserable MB (too embarrass to state it here).
[2]If the university is aiming for higher ranking, then systematic actions must be taken to improve the IT infrastructure and management.
[3]I was asked to use elearn. I did that in 2003. The time spent to upload was nerve-wrecking. To make it worse they blocked all email accounts in 2006 without informing users. They revamped - Once beaten, twice shy.
[4] I was asked to use the university's blog. Up to 30MB? Why should I? I created an account but I shall stick to this. I can go mobile here:)

Another failure

My official webpage cannot be updated due to failure to connect to ibnukhaldun.iiu.edu.my. I reported the problem last week. Kudos to the blogspot team for efficient operation! Thank you.
