I really should have saved this for Wednesday (April the 1st) but we went to the London Science Museum this weekend to see the new Wallace & Gromit World of Cracking Ideas exhibition

I have to admit that the big kid in me found it as much fun as Sam (aged 6) did and as it is running until November, we would recommend a visit if you are in or visiting London

But there were 2 things that really stood out but I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

You will find a full set of photos of the event over in my photo album.

HP Technology@Work 2009 – Berlin

Posted by —

Well the good news is that HP are back at the ICC in Berlin this year for their annual showcase and my invitation is on the desk (and for the 3rd year running, thank you Computacenter).

This year the theme is very much geared towards the current economic challenges IT is facing so I am expecting to see some new attitudes and approaches.

As in previous years, I shall report back via my blog on anything worthy of note and please feel free to give me a shout if you are also in attendance and want to meet up and exchange thoughts.

Much more soon
