Another day, another irk.

So The Department of Education and Training (DET) opts to block google docs, in it's attempt to block online personal storage. And yet it is just fine with gmail and attachments.

This happens in a year where supposedly google is making amazing inroads into DET's counter parts in the US, with a million students using google docs to do normal school work.

[Revision 20080822 : found this in my old bookmarks -- Google is close to landing a contract with the NSW Department of Education and Training to support 1.3 million students with Gmail -- via computerworld.com.au ]

[Revision 20081125 : I can confirm that my student email account is has been operating via gmail for about a week now. So the above rumour is fact, and makes me a bit more happy.]
