• anti-mega: tangible computing
  Slides and links to notes from Chris Heathcote & Matt Jones' presentation at ETech2005. Interesting thoughts and ideas on how interacting with computers should evolve. The work on touching devices together as a "UI" is particularly cool.

• plasticbag.org | weblog | On Reinventing Radio: Enhancing One-to-Many with Many-to-Many...
  This is why the BBC rocks! The slides from a talk on some of the R&D being done to increase the interaction between people and the content generated by the BBC radio stations - the demo services to allow tagging of songs playing on 6Music and integrating the radio player into instant messaging are pretty cool. I particularly like how the tagging service uses both PC (well, web browser) and mobile phone for the user interface, playing to the strengths of each.
