Bettr

aMap from Delib

Chris from Delib did a quick presentation of aMaps at the SI Camp on the evening after Bettr and I have put together a quick and not particularly clever interactive aMap together below. I think the online version could be alot of fun and certainly has educational implications and I'm interested to see the paper versions (I wonder if there is a Moo like opportunity here - design your own aMaps and get them printed and sent out? Sure they have thought of that.)

Building the scholary web of data

Chris Clarke from Talis did one of the first presentations on the day - to a certain extent he presented at my urging as I was a bit worried that people were not rushing to add talks to the programme (didn't need to worry in the end but panic is all part of the fun!) but I think people still found the talk very intersting and I certainly did (despite my predjudice against some of the semantic web elements :) ).

JISC Developer Happiness Days

Another quick presentation at the end of the day was from Dave Flanders who quickly mentioned the JISC Developer Happiness Days that he is helping run.  This is close to my heart as I spent five years at JISC and think this is a great idea (and a pretty radical one for JISC).

Why Portability Matters by Ian Forrester

At the close of the day Ian mentioned this presentation that he had given to JISC at the end of 2008 so here it is in all its glory - well worth a look.
