Today there was a lunchtime talk from a supposedly top-notch speaker from a top-notch university about 'disruptive technologies' in the learning and teaching environment (blogs, wikis, RSS and the usual suspects). It wasn't that what he had to say was uninteresting but for a youngish, trendyish, knowledgeable academic you really might have thought that his presentational ability could have been several notches better.

Still, we were given lunch of a sort. (And told off when we tried to take our cups of tea into the lecture room... which was a good reminder of how students must feel (see, yesterday's post!)).
