  2. Stock Exchange by foundme · · Score: 4, Interesting · on Teachers Using Computer Games in Class

    One of our lecturers asked us to participate in a stock exchange game, and had the nerve to bet that we wouldn't do well.

    Sure enough we did well, mainly because we students as one big syndicate is simply too powerful in term of market manipulation, and the fact that one is more risk-taking with fake money. So I guess we did learn something out of it.

    You mean like the MouseBoard?

  4. Online/Remote works for me by iclod · · Score: 5, Interesting · on What Do People in the IT Field Do for Side Jobs?

    it depends what kind of IT skills you have.

    i am working for few online games like iclod and xmoo, they generate a bit of incomes and open up opportunities for other jobs.

    the advantage is i don't need to be there physically to carry out works, but with that advantage, i also get the disadvantage of having thousand of similarly skilled people fighting for the same work.

    i believe hardware-IT may have more opportunities. just post an ads on local newspaper to "Fix Your Computer Problems At Home" and there bound to be some elderly people who would rather get a local service from a local person at home.

    Interesting thing is, an online virtual stock exchange game that I'm playing, shows a drop of in share price (slashdot market) as we get more of these 503 errors. Maybe due to the fact that fewer moderators can log in to moderate.
