Bicycle parking gadget

If the bicycle parking area is too large, people will forget where they left their bike. Like at the Velo Parking at Basel SBB. This evening a young woman was looking for her bicycle. A couple of days ago a young man was wandering up and down the aisles in search of his bike. And… Continue reading Bicycle parking gadget

Lift11 in Geneva

Unfortunately the wifi was patchy and a number of valuable text snippets were lost… 😉 I got one Tweet response – all the way from Malawi – that appreciated my effort. I tuned in to… Continue reading Lift 08: Fragments of Captured Attention

Lift08

I attended these workshops: Forgetful interfaces Ubiquitous computing I’m uploading a couple of snaps in my Flickr stream. A fave:

Overload ( Day 2.75 )

I enjoyed the Lift panel on technological overload. Lots of food for thought. I’m off to grab some coffee.

Lift ( Day 2.0 )

A small little trend I observed: Quite a couple of presentations are using Flickr photos as a background…

LIFT conf ( Day 1 )

It’s pouring outside and I’m taking a quick moment to publish my unreflected notes that I took in today’s sessions, pêle-mêle, off the top of my head, in shorthand: Morning session: The slides are available here.

LIFT conf ( Day 0.5 )

My first workshop at LIFT 07 was great. Enjoyed it. I attended Glenn O’Neil’s D.I.Y. Monitoring and Evaluation…. I’m feeling kind of feverish and I’ve got a bad headache, which is ignoring the Aspirin I’ve already taken.

LIFT conf ( Day 0 )

Bungled reservation, seedy area of town, my Lift conf is off to a flying start from an accomodation point of view….now testing the hotel wifi.
