  • Digital activism

    Last week I did a little presentation on Digital Activism at the Brighton and Hove Socialist Party meeting. Here it is, all the slides are just images but all my notes are on the notes tab (if you view this presentation on Slideshare) and you can download the presentation too. The commentary is pretty much…

  • Breaking the hierarchy – democratising the institutional web space

    So finally I’m publishing my whole book chapter here, so anyone can comment on it, as promised. Download the PDF: Breaking the hierarchy – democratising the institutional web space [160KB PDF] And you can buy the book (I don’t get any money from it though!) here: Technology-supported Environments for Personalized Learning: Methods and Case Studies…

  • The Evil Facebook Diet App

    So I clicked this Facebook ad today: Cos I’m trying to put some weight on. Seemed like a good app, I started adding the food I’d eaten today and it counted my calories for me. Then went to put what activities I’d done. It asked me to put in my weight and target weight first…

  • Social Media World Forum – Free Tools for Social Media #smwf

    OK so this post is a few weeks late and I haven’t blogged in a while, but since it seemed to go down well at Social Media World Forum and got featured on Slideshare’s homepage (woohoo!), I thought it’d be worth putting my presentation on my blog too. This is what I presented at SMWF…

  • Ten delicious accessibility links

    I’ve been wondering how I can feature my delicious links on blog posts, so I just decided to start at the beginning of the alphabet of tags containing at least 10 links. I don’t like those automated services that just post a blog of your daily or weekly links – I wanted to group it…

  • TalkTalk are all talk

    Why is it that whenever anybody needs to set up a new internet connection, it’s always a nightmare? Why can’t somebody just get it right without a customer service massive FAIL?  Having just moved in to a new flat, we decided to go with Talk Talk as they were reviewed as being the best, and…

  • Climate Change Stuff

    I’m a bit late on the ball, but it’s still an interesting read – I’ve finally got around to adding my ex-colleague Paul Collins’ blog to my blogroll. He left work to go on a big trip to the Copenhagen summit, and has done a really nice job of documenting the experience alongside some interesting…
