I followed this on Twitter at the time - I wasn't able to go unfortunatlely, but a friend has just drawn the video to my intention, so no need to entirely to miss out. Really interesting debate with: "Stephen Fry, actor, journalist and celebrity 'Tweeter' and self-confessed technophile; Biz Stone,…

"It is a Britain, indeed a world, where the private individual has ceased to exist, and one in which an unholy alliance of the state and Mammon rules our lives with powers that would have made Stalin sick with envy. This dystopian nightmare is a distinct possibility thanks to what…

Super Fun Days Out snuck in at the last minute (literally, in UK time). I'd done my blog entry for this blog, and then thought - there's quite a lot of adrenalin/extreme sports that people can undertake without impacting too much upon the environment, so I pulled together an entry…
