WordCamp UK 2008 – A Qik Look Back…

header image

One of the great things about blogging is you can still do it when you are unable to talk! I had an unscheduled visit to the dentist today, having woken up in intense pain. Now the anesthetic is wearing off, I am remembering what happens when you get over 60 WordPress bloggers and developers in [...]

Avoiding a Business Communication Crisis

Hey, that’s your business! Or it could be. Vandals pulled a large number of BT cables out of the ground in our local town (Camberley), leaving thousands of people and hundreds of businesses without their phones.

Future of The Web – Part II – The Future

Tim Berners-Lee @ The Innovation Edge

This is the second in a short series of posts, as I digest the talks from The Innovation Edge 08. Yesterday covered Gordon Brown (I’m enjoying the comments). Today is focused on Jonathan Freedland’s interview with Sir Tim Berners-Lee. For those that may have temporarily forgotten, Sir Tim is broadly viewed as the inventor of [...]
