Young Rewired State
Great work from Callum, our parttime coder who we sponsored to go to Young Rewired State. He was on the team for "How's my train running", which won the "Most likely to antagonise CIO council prize".
We're so proud...

LocalGovCamp
This was the beginning of summer conference-a-thon, and a fine thing it was too. A lot of "we've done", and sharing of actual experience was great to see. Just a little hint of preaching to the converted, but a great opportunity to catch up with what's going on.

UKGovCamp2009
No hyperbole here. UKGovCamp - or however it should be capitalised - was fabulous. It had a couple of teeny downsides - I'm now signed up to Twitter, and the attendee demographic was a little WEM for me. But the conversations, the challenges, the contacts, and Clarke in action... A really really good day. Looking forward to next year's already. The focus is on delivery now.

Museums, sustainability and growth
One of the perks of being a small company is that you can explore areas just because they're interesting. So we do turn up in odd places, just to see what might spark what.
But this conference showed that heritage is so full of possibilities for imaginative use of Internet technologies, I got a little dizzy. Maybe a little because it was mainly new to me, but the level of thinking was top hole, the speakers and discussions excellent.
Inspiring. Fabulous.
Thanks to the organisers for letting some random geek in to their world.

UKYouthOnline unconference
Another marvellous unconference. I love this format - feels much more centered on the attendees than a traditional "stand up and speak" event. Congratulations to Tim Davies for all the set-up work.

2gether
A great day of sidealley catchups and ideas for innovating with. Thanks to Steve for the invite - well worth the break from Phantasmagoria work.

Every now and then a tool comes along which just makes us happy. Wordle is one of those tools, and this is how it looks when you feed it some words about us.

Well, it's public then...
So, Phantasmagoria is outed. We've been working round use of the Internet as a channel for informal educational outcomes for some time now. We're dead chuffed that Channel 4 are taking that concept a stage further - Phantasmagoria is very oblique in its educational value. We're convinced it's got huge potential as a tool for transformation, and we're looking forward to seeing how it's used.
