Harvard's Photography Course Available for Free
Harvard's Complete Photography Course is now Available for Free
Online.
by MATTHEW HUGHES
"If your resolution for 2017 is to take better photographs than
your current blurry, badly composed effort, you'll want to check
out this free MOOC from Harvard University.
The school where Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates cut their teeth
has uploaded the entirety of its photography course to ALISON -
one of the many repositories of online learning courses."
The course consists of twelve modules that cover the
fundamentals of photography - from software tools to composition
and light. There’s also a thirteenth module which serves as an
assessment of all you know. If you pass this with a score of 80
percent or higher, and you can get yourself a diploma to print
and hang on your wall.

Thanks to Vince Coen, 2:250/1 for this one!
What would have happened if it had been Three Wise Women
instead of three wise men?
~They would have asked directions
~Arrived on time...
~Helped deliver the baby...
~Cleaned the stable
~Brought special gifts..
... and made a casserole
As they left, they would have said:
"Did you see the sandals Mary was wearing with that gown?"
"Did you see that Drummer boy, he can beat my drum anytime!"
"Want to bet on how lont it will take before you get your
casserole dish back?"
"I hear that Joseph isn't even working right now!!"
"Virgin, my *%@$! I knew her in School!"
"That baby doesn't look anything like Joseph!"

Echomail Statistics
Last 8 days
By Janis Kracht, 1:261/38, janis@filegate.net
Sorry, no echomail statistics this week. Something
changed over here with an upgrade, and my scripts
that generate the statistics have to be rewritten.
I'll try to get that done this week.

=================================================================
INFO:
Fidogazette is published by Janis Kracht, Editor.
If you have an idea for a column or a series of articles,
please contact me :)
New!
Mailing-List subscriptions via
http://www.filegate.net/sub.html
but of course you can always link into your uplink and use
Tick or a tick compatible program.
Where to Send Your Articles
Unlike most editors, I surely do not mind running my mouth
when there is a sparsity of articles for the 'zine. I'd
MUCH rather you sent in material... lacking that, I will
fill these issues with my meanderings and thoughts and
hopefully we will grow into something of consequence here
:)
Write an article!
If you WOULD like to submit an article, feel free to drop
your article off at:
Email attach to address: janis @ filegate.net
Fidonet attach: Janis Kracht at 1:261/38
Modem: 607-200-4076
Binkp: 1:261/100 filegate.net port 24555
telnet mailer: filegate.net
If you are using routed Fidonet mail, don't send articles as routed
attaches. They will fail somewhere along the path before getting here.
Send them instead direct to filegate.net.
Give it a title, sign your name and network address if you have
one and send it along!
Don't worry about the format, I can take anything you send me
and mutilate it further as you can see above. Linux is nice
that way (g). Spell checking your own work will help though
(something I'm typically guilty of (g)).
To send reviews or recipes to the Food section, email or
netmail Janis as above.
Email address for submissions to Dr.Debug:
To send a question to Dr. Debug, email a question to:
drdebug @ filegate.net
or post in the fidogazette echo! :)
To send a listing to the FidoGazette bbslist, email your
listing to:
bbslist @ filegate.net
or post it in the fidogazette echo!
