Appointment Booking System.

I’ve been trying to arrange meetings/consultations sessions with students and it’s not always possible because of our different timetables. I’m now trying to find a free online appointment booking system that integrates with Google Calendars to serve two purposes:

  1. Allow students to ‘book’ a meeting slot with me based on mine and their available meeting times without much hassle.
  2. Automatically ‘pull’ info from my Google Calendar to determine when I’m free/when I’m not free + ‘push’ info to my Google Calendar to automatically update my schedule for me.

I don’t think anyone has come up with something like this yet so if any computing whiz wants to work on this, I’d say go for it (and let me know when you do come up with this so that I can use it! It’s my brainchild after all!). You can most likely sell it to companies/organisations that need this service when you’re done creating the program for it.

This is probably old news for everyone else but I only just got round to reading about it today.

Nevertheless, it’s rather unfortunate that I don’t have 1337 Photoshop skills, otherwise I’d have conjured up something with a screenshot from DotA.

In any case, the picture below and its caption really made me laugh when I saw it: “Imagine you’re damn serious pawning enemies while your team mate [is] lining up chickens to impress his girlfriend“.

If a clown.

I like this poem, not only because its premise hinges on Stephen King’s cultural sensibilities, but also because it asks a very important question:

What could be sadder … than a clown in need of a context?

Yes, there is nothing sadder than a clown searching for a context, and it is especially apparent in today’s world – we have so many people working in jobs that just don’t fit them, either because these people haven’t evolved to meet the needs of this era, or because they were the wrong people for the job from the very beginning.
