I like that.....,I like that......

This is about a posting about Ph.D studentship in Sentiment Analysis at University of Wolverhampton. The complete job posting can be found here.

There are two reasons behind writing this post.
1. The deadline for receipt of an email is 30 November, 2009. Candidates selected for further consideration will be sent a reply email within 48 hours of the receipt
of their original email. Non-receipt of an email means that you have not
been shortlisted.

These are few lines verbatim from the posting.
Getting a reply within 48 hours of mailing them and "non-receipt of any such reply implies that the candidate is not shortlisted" is something that caught my attention. I rarely see such people/organizations which at least specify what time you can look for a reply(positive or negative) from them. ( People who have faced the problem of not receiving a reply after applying would appreciate this kind of posting. )
:)

I think job ads of such type would draw great attention from the applicants.

2. Students who are working on summarization may find this demo link useful to carry out few experiments by tweaking some parameters.
There are other demos too.

I would appreciate the job posting and also the idea of the providing demos for experimentation.
