Minecraft Server: Bukkit dev install notes
Bukkit is a full update/replacement for your minecraft server.
A straightforward installation, just copy the jar into your server folder.
Take care to backup your world folder in case of loss.
The Bukkit version of the Minecraft server can load plugins just like the original Minecraft server. Just copy plugin files to the plugin folder.

worldedit http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/worldedit/

Following the recipe for a pacman game in Scratch
The off-line editor can be accessed from http://scratch.mit.edu/scratch2download/
The link to the recipe is http://scratched.media.mit.edu/sites/default/files/PacMan%20Lesson.pdf
The link to the recipe is http://scratched.media.mit.edu/sites/default/files/PacMan%20Lesson.pdf
I'll keep notes here on how we did.
1. Started by creating sprites named:
PacMan (I used the Orange sprite)
Vertical (re-tasked the Wand)
Horizontal (rotated a copy of Vertical)
PointPill (a Baseball)
Ghost_1 (borrow the Tera space character)
PowerUp (a Tennis Ball)
GameOver (a new Sprite using the text tool)

web site, domain name and web hosting
Domain name:
So I need a domain name? What name suffix should I choose?
Where should I register?
How much does it cost? Is it a once off cost or do I have to pay an annual renewal (rent)?
Once I have registered the domain name how do I link it with a web server?
How long does it take for the NS (name server) registration to change over if I switch host?
What if I change web hosting provider?
Notes:
ICANN is the global authority, a roll-up registry, for internet domains (ICANN link). The purchase and renewal of domains is usually handled via reselling entities like Godaddy (commercial) and IEDR (a national authority).
Web hosting provider:
What web hosting providers should I select (assuming I'm not going to do it myself)?
What services should I expect the host to provide (CMS choices, support, uptime, bandwidth etc).
Does the Hosting provider have the CMS I want?
Expandible?
Cost?
CMS for site:
Should I have a local copy of the system ? e.g. CMS + Apache + PHP + MySQL + ?
What themes and Plugins can I use?
Comments on Godaddy
So, the accounts that ever grow for a Godaddy website…
Because you need an email address to register the domain name with ICANN (via Godaddy)
This is also the email address linked with Godaddy billing information.
A new separate login associated with Godaddy, allows us to get into Godaddy and used to manage the cpanel. The cpanel allows the domain owner to install applications like Wordpress on the domain resource area.
An admin login associated with the Wordpress application installed and managed via Godaddy cpanel.
You can access it via the websiteurl/wp-admin/
Within the Wordpress installation you can have the following roles: administrator, contributor, author, editor, and subscriber. Usually, create a login id and invitation to recipient via their email address.
