Media Socialists ~ Singapore Meetup

Last Thursday evening Siva invited me to a meeting of the "media socialists" in Singapore. Our common bond is exploring the benefits of Web 2.0 technologies, particularly in education. There are some photographs recording the meeting attended by myself, Siva, Kenneth and others in Toa Payoh on the Thursday night during my trip to Singapore.

We were all discussing the possibilities associated with the benefits of Web 2.0 technologies in fields such as education and business. I gave a quick, albeit faltering, demo of Swickis. I think I was just too tired. Kevin introduced the group to the world of Jaikus.

We left the Toa Payoh Library meeting room at 9:00PM and adjourned to a nearby McDonald's to continue the general discussion. We stayed on till about 11.00PM or so and then returned to our respective homes. I met a couple of gentlemen who had attended the University of Wollongong! Stay tuned for my post on that coincidence!
