the end of EGRET
Now we're in the closing stages, and submitting our final reports to JISC this week. It seemed like the perfect moment to celebrate the end of a successful project - with some Chelsea buns, the signature cake for the project. They didn't last long.

HCI 2009
EGRET and Talks.cam are excited to have been invited to present at the HCI 2009 conference Open House on 2nd September 2009. This is the 23rd British Computer Society conference on Human-Computer Interaction, and a very prestigious event. We're lucky to be there, and looking forward to meeting lots of new people (and potential Talks.cam users!).

As the conference site says:
The 23rd BCS conference on Human Computer Interaction celebrates the people who use technology, the people who create new technologies, and the relationship between them. A centrepiece of the conference will be an Open House Festival involving the many Cambridge laboratories and startup companies now creating new displays, devices, games, communications and ubiquitous computing technologies. New developments in HCI depend on technology, and interchange between the communities will offer influence in both directions.
