Some notes I made from today’s conversations which included @tonyhall @freecloud & @tibocut with a fortunate postscript one-to-one for me with @mistergough The RFH was being used today for a graduation ceremony. That chimed with my recognition that some people have “graduated” from Tuttle and that’s worth celebrating. “MayDay Rooms is a safe haven for…
The most frequently asked question about #tuttle is: “Is it still going?” To which the answer is “Yes, still Fridays, still 10am-noon, still no agenda, currently on Level 5 at RFH” And. We operate on a much smaller pool of people, which means the possibility of more intimate conversation (I’ve had some doozies!), but also…
Jon Hickman is writing an article on the crowdsourced journalism site, Contributoria on whether or not you can live on social capital. He kindly thought that my experiences wandering around the United States of America might provide some insight, so we had a chat. Even if you’ve heard me talk about it before, you…

I’ve always hated writing CVs. I could never convey the interest and excitement of work that I had done compressed into a sentence or two, written in the third person or the passive voice. It also seemed that it was always too much about me. When I looked at the work that I had done…
I’ve just seen that qik.com is finally going down. I did some work to download my videos last year soon after blip.tv torched my stuff. I’m ashamed to say that I don’t seem to have documented the process. If I find anything, I’ll post it, but it went something like this – if you have…
I ran an unconference session at a conference for Housing Tenant Engagement people last week. Dave and I touched on it in our latest podcast – he asked me how it had gone, how it worked in a situation where people hadn’t chosen specially to come to an open space, when they’d been there solely…
