After Speaking to Roo Reynolds last week he has agreed to do a little talk at GDL. He has recently moved to the BBC, as social media guru, but has previously been at IBM being their Virtual Worlds guru.

Roo posted this video as a teaser for his talk at GDL.

It is a great example of the talks at GDL: a bit weird, very interesting, but most of all taking technology further than it was intended.
