i-Conference

I have just made this blog a bit more official, since I have added my name to it. I have no idea if I will be able to keep it updated or in any sense interesting. Time will tell.

I am off tomorrow to the first i-Conference. This is the first conference for the new and emerging schools of information and informatics in the States. It will be some interesting days. There is a growing awareness that the "old" disciplines in the field, such as computer science and information systems are a bit outdated. The new way of understanding the field of information technology is as "informatics". That is why I am happy to be associated with both a School of Informatics and a Department of Informatics.

I might have some comments on the conference in a few days!
