18th August, 2008: Meaningful Play 2008
I’ve just been notified that my poster submission for the Meaningful Play Conference 2008 has been accepted for presentation, hurrah. (This was my first submission as a PhD candidate; so far, so good.)
The conference is in East Lansing, Michigan, USA from October 9-11, and I’m very interested to see what else will be presented and discussed there. Let me know if you’re planning on being there, too.
(Sidenote: Hmm, my charity half-marathon is on 12th October in London. So I may have to leave the conference a day early to fly back to the UK in time and get at least some rest before race day.)

17th August, 2008: Mitu.nu, 2.0.
Welcome to a new and revamped Mitu.nu – vee two point oh. Yes, I’m back here, and, thanks to the mad skillz of the lovely Vixx of Geek Goddess, with a brand new design. I was toying with the idea of getting rid of my old WordPress installation, as since the inception of this blog a year ago, all I’d been doing was vaguely reposting links and apologising for massive gaps in updating. Well that is, no longer, my friends.
Especially since I’m now back into the full swing of being a doctoral student – this means that there’s lots of procrastination to be done, and it shall be done here. Oh yes.
So, apart from this lovely new redesign by Vixx (she conceptualised this whole thing from my few vague details – she knew what I was after even better than I did. Now there’s a good designer – and a good friend!) I’ve also switched the comments system over to Disqus, deleted all my old outdated links and imported everything straight from my latest Feedreader OPML file (look over there in the sidebar), and rewrote the section about me. And umm, that’s about all the content there is for the moment. So there.
