Congratulations
Well done to the undergraduate BA class of 2010 - I hope all of you are celebrating as I type this!
Digital Humanities Observatory Summer School 2010
It is that time of year again and the DHO summer school is on again. This time there are 80 participants from 12 countries. It is a great mix and there is much news and many ideas to share.
I am in the XSLT course with Laura Mandell and Dana Wheeles - today was excellent - we all got to do a text transformation - and then played around with that - getting to know xsl in the meantime creating internal and external links, footnotes, using different fonts...
So we covered XPath and xsl with an introduction to and practical workshop in xslt so we have achieved a lot in one day - all with wonderful support and great questions from the group teasing out the minutiae of the detail.
I am looking forward to tomorrow - the bar was set high today!

Bursaries for Leipzig - act fast!
This is an update - I know lots of the facilitators and would *love* to go myself - and may yet do so - so here are the details via Elizabeth Burr -
We are please to announce that due to the generous support granted to
the European Summer School "Culture & Technology" by the Volkswagen
Foundation we are able to reduce the fees considerably (see

For what concerns the conditions that need to be respected if you want
to qualify for a bursary please see:
http://www.culingtec.uni-leipzig.de/ESU/
In order to give interested people who up to now have refrained from
applying for a place at the Summer School because of the level of the
fees the opportunity to take part in the School the deadline for
application will be further extended.
Please note: there are not many places left.
Application is done via ConfTool: https://www.conftool.net/esu2010/ by
creating an account and handing in a curriculum vitae and a letter of
motivation (300-500 words). People who would like to present their own
project hand in a short description of the project as well.
