We watched a presentation from Manchester University’s Pi Face team, who are making an interfacing board for education with the 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi. London Zoo sent some technologists along to talk about their EyesPi project, which will be using 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pis to power camera networks spotting and recognising animals in the wild (we’re going to be talking to them some more about the camera add-on we’re working on at the moment). RISC OS came and did a demo of their port, currently in alpha, running on a 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi, which we’re excited about not just for reasons of nostalgia.

I’m particularly pleased to have seen so many teachers in the audience; we love that teachers who are familiar with the 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi are sharing their knowledge and 亚洲永久无码7777kkk with teachers who want to become familiar with it. The Teach Meet after the presentations was packed; we’re very grateful to all the teachers who are taking the 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi and running with it.

And we finally got to meet Liam Fraser in the flesh. Liam, as many of you will know, is the 18-year-old giant brain who runs our downloads server, who runs the 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi Tutorials YouTube channel (he’s recording new tutorials now his A Level exams are finished), and who now has a monthly column about the 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi in Linux User magazine. We feel we know Liam really well; Eben and I have been talking to him regularly for over a year now, and I feel I know him well enough that I’d trust my handbag (or, for that matter, my downloads server) to him. It felt like it couldn’t possibly be the first time we’d actually shared physical space: but it was, and it was a real pleasure to grasp him by the paw and thank him in person for all the work he’s been doing (and continues to do) for us. Yes, I recycle a joke from the first video here. Must try harder.

As Alan O’Donohoe, the central 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Jam organiser says: please spread this Jam. There are now 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Jams taking place all over the world, from Portland, Oregon; to Athens; to Melbourne, Australia. They’re a really great way to meet other 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi enthusiasts, get to grips with a 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi if you’re a bit daunted by the whole thing, learn what you can do with one, share other people’s projects, and boast about what you’re doing with your own 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Pi. You can learn what’s involved in setting a 小蝌蚪视频在线观看www Jam up yourself here. Thanks to everyone who came, and thanks to James Abela and Alan for organising it all; let’s do it again soon!

Edit 1900h, Jul 15: The official organisers’ blog has just been updated with the presentations and video from the day; head on over!
