Connected Blog

Last December I had the privilege of presenting some notions around the ‘Bebo Boomer’ at the Online Information Conference, the largest information professional conference in the world. I’ve got around to publishing this crammed 20 minutes of ideas, where I wanted to see if business and public service organisations were prepared to harness the basic skills of youngsters entering the workplace to create more innovation and better communications.

My co-presenters on the panel that day, Roo Reynolds and Mary Ellen Bates, sandwiched me in a way that made it look like we had conceived and carefully woven the whole hour together: Roo on the intricacies of virtual worlds in the workplace, then me on how young people entering the workplace could see their skills better harnessed, then Mary Ellen on the importance of play and gaming.

Roo carries the audio from the all three mini-presentations (including his Slideshare) and the discussion that followed, after I curated comments from Twitter, this blog and mobile phone SMSs. After much bullying from Roo (;-) here is the full presentation, slides, audio and laughter, from my intervention that day, or you can just listen to the audio below.
