Let's get started

We've had the first two days of the course - I hope you are enjoying it and getting some new ideas and fresh perspectives on our media landscape.....? Please start looking for interesting stories about new technologies, networks, digital media, etc, as well as images, movies, whatever you think is interesting. I'd really hope that all of you can find things that are personally interesting for you - and share them with the rest of the group here!
