Five of us Coffee morned today, but what a cracking bunch of threads were unravelled.

Me, Ewan, Jamie, Fraser and Fraser covered:

Jaiku, 'Media snacking', Google's 20% time, the eco-friendly company down south who pay their employees 44p per mile when they use their car on company business, AND 44p a mile to all staff who use there bikes to get to and from work. (Still looking for link.)

The Channel4 future of education conference, bigoted Taxi drivers, (Dublin Branch), User Generated Education, how Nintendo have donated 30 wii's to to a class of Scottish school kids, to help research the use of technology in Education. (See also here.) Correction: The education authority have bought.

We also discussed Euan Semple's excellent theobvious blog.

Also Jim Downie, stopped by, sat down, then got up as he was supposed to be at another meeting at another meeting in Centotre.

Then came back, then got up again and left after getting a phone call that he had to do a rush ad, copy date Noon today.

Oh and all commented, the bacon rolls at Centotre were/are outstanding.
