Welcome!
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Integrated Science, Business and Technology (ISBT) at La Salle University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
I maintain my Personal blog at blog.williamlweaver.com which contains copies of my older editorials and random commentary.
I maintain my Personal wiki at wlw.williamlweaver.com. While developing courses in Information and Knowledge Management, I strive to glean current trends in content management and to utilize emerging tools. To that end, the static "web page" is falling out of favor. Rather than host a collection of linked html files, I have been converting my collection of pages to the wiki format. While still not a full blown Content Management System, Google Sites provides a large amount of "Web 2.0" gadgets that enhance the content mangement experience.
I am also a Contributing Editor for Scientific Computing magazine. I write a monthly column and feature articles on the broad topic of measurement science under my nickname "Bill Weaver". You can find links to my articles here.
