RECORD seminar: How to design social media – Tomorrow
Tomorrow i’ll be attending the Record seminar at Forskningsparken in Oslo. I was there last year as well and it was pretty good. This year it seems like the Norwegian science community on the topic has gotten a step further and is a bit more established.
.
I have written a short translation of the program here since it’s in Norwegian. I also didn’t find their official page until late in my preparations for tomorrow since the invitations and so on haven’t mentioned the site at all. Pretty annoying, and I had actually planned to write a post regarding the paradox. I’m not sure yet if I’ll be posting live or if I’ll give a short sum up from my notes through the day when I get back at the office. Either way, you’ll find the posts here.
