It is that time of year again: SXSWi panel pimpage! I’ve put together a somewhat vague panel proposal on behalf of microformats.org and I would appreciate it if you could give it a vote.
Apparently voting only counts towards a relatively small percentage (30%) of whether or not it will be selected, but with 2346 proposals in the system, I suspect it counts a lot more than that.
I realise that queries or concerns about HTML 5 elements should make their way onto the WHATWG mailing list, but I just wanted to get a few thoughts out on here about what I’ve spent far too long discussing at work recently. It’s perfectly likely that I’ve totally got the wrong end of the proverbial, so this is just me trying to get my mind straight on why I feel something about this is unnatural and I welcome comments to help clarify or discuss.
hgroup, eh?For Science Hack Day, I have have been thinking about a topic that was of great interest to me whilst I was at university – artificial intelligence.
Science Hack Day hasn’t actually happened yet, by the way. It’s going on this weekend (19th & 20th June) at the Guardian offices, and there’s still time to sign up if you’re interested. This is an idea I was playing around with, but I probably won’t be doing this at the weekend unless it piques someone else’s (with more linguistic intellect) interest. Feel free to bug me if this is a topic to chat about.
It’s true – I am leaving the BBC! As of June 2nd, I’ll be a front-end developer at Nature.
The last three years at the BBC have been good ones. I think the quality of the output and massive range of products that have come out of the development teams has just been amazing. It feels like everyone I have had the pleasure of working with at the Beeb has been smart, engaged and really got the web and wanted to make cool things.
