Up & Running : server, moodle and collab tool

Today is a big day for us since we just finished setting up Moodle and Agora Project on our very own server !

I guess everybody knows Moodle now. Moodle is to Elearning what Mozilla Firefox is to web browsing. Moodle is one of the world's favourite LMS (Learning Management System), i.e a ready-to-use website for learning purposes : students and teachers may login to broadcast or take classes. And it's all free and open source. Its best feature maybe a large community of users helping each others. http://moodle.org/

We were looking for a tool for online collaboration. Since all our producing teams will be spread across Europe, we needed a place so they can share documents, ask questions, help each other, get feedback. A good friend and Elearning specialist recommended that I try Agora Project. It's also very simple to use, open source and free. See for yourself http://www.agora-project.net/

Our server is hosted by HostPapa.eu. They offer unlimited bandwith and disk storage for a reasonable price, plus they're green. http://www.hostpapa.eu/
