With 8-9 projects to handle and close within the next couple of months, I’m in a state where I should be panicking – yet somehow I’m not. I am in the eye of the hurricane. A step out of place and I will be swept away. So I simply remain, standing where I am, shifting …
This announcement just came in: The team behind the virtual version of U2, will be putting up 2 full-length concerts at the Dragon Moon Arena on Sat, 10 Feb at 11 a.m. SLT (Second Life Time) and Sun, 11 Feb at 4 p.m. SLT. Second Life Time is equivalent to San Francisco time. Use a …
We had our 2nd Second Life (SL) gathering this evening at 7pm. At the time, in real life, I was watching the final minutes of the Australian Open men’s finals, as Roger the Federer Express was making a meal out of Speedy Gonzalez (who was tiring from all that dashing about). So I logged into …

[Update: Hurrah, one student has blogged about the talk!] I gave the presentation this evening. Murphy’s Law threatened to cause a few surprises, but all was well in the end! I started with a cover of Time Magazine’s person of the year 2006 – “You”. I talked about how new media technologies have empowered people …
I think I’m going to like speaking to the HP Alumni this Friday. It started with my glorious Dell laptop hanging twice yesterday morning at work, while I was in a meeting. Nothing was being downloaded or installed and I wasn’t running any heavy-duty programs but my email, web browser and word processor. Fortunately, I …
It was the time of the year again, that the old titans of the English Premier League clashed. Though somehow I think yesterday’s Liverpool v Chelsea match was talked about more. Arsenal had already beaten Man United this season at Old Trafford. Both sides were in good form. The jury was out on the final …
