Overall, not too much excitement this week so far...but a few quick notes...
- Michelle and I did attend an ICT for Development event hosted by the Humanitarian Centre last night. Pretty solid event overall. I may or may not post a briefing later on depending on how motivated I feel. There were 6 quickfire presentations (4 minutes each) from Cambridge NGO's that utilize connective technologies in their work. Can't really learn too much in 4 minutes, but most of them were pretty well done. However, my theory on presentations holds...if you have at least 5 presenters at an event...you will have at least one complete train wreck. We definitely had our train wreck...but no fears, I'm sure it was hailed as brilliant!
- Somewhat alarmingly, at least 2 of my program classmates have had significant bike accidents so far. Not sure how many bike riders there are in the group, but that's an absolute minimum of 2 accidents out of 70 people in a 3 week span. Not crazy about those odds.
- You know what's almost as awesome as texting while biking...smoking while biking.
