Liam and Alex’s Present­a­tion on Lua in Garry’s Mod (hence missed Anna Liu’s present­a­tion)
http://goodbarry.com/  We’re going to see more of this little applic­a­tion.

Friday, August 24th, 2007

What a geek week. Face to Face present­a­tions to 120 people, focus­ing on this new world of “online”. Some­where around 6,700+ views of http://thegeekstories.com/ videos.
Ran into some old Apple friends (hi Tom!) and shared the joys of Frank­arr mov­ing into the US.

Tim, an old friend whom I owe much, a key share­holder in Next­Byte sold out […]

BarCampSydney: The Geek Stories

Saturday, March 3rd, 2007

Not all the video I cap­tured today will be used On10.net
So, rather than dis­card the bits: I’ve uploaded them to You­Tube.
Fol­low the tag “Bar­CampSydney” or just look at this playl­ist.
My favour­ite: Geeks in Star­tups are Hot

Meet me at Barcamp Sydney

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

Liam is com­ing along too — so you will see us with the new video cam­era (named Flash­heart) in hand get­ting geek stor­ies from participants.
