Connected Digital World

London’s Victoria and Albert museum is recruiting a resident games designer.

This year is rather important to London and the UK – we had the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, and we also have the 2012 Olympics. To celebrate that there are a number of items available to show the Pride of London including a stunning board game of the history of London.

Today was the press day for Gadget Show Live 2012, and one of my first stops (as usual) was at the Centre for Computing History’s stand.

The Acorn BBC Micro turned 30 and to celebrate it the Centre for Computing History organised a once in a lifetime event that included the original people behind the BBC Micro.

Last week Apple sent out invites to selected journalists for an education focused event set to take place in New York City on Thursday 19th January at the Guggenheim museum.

This weeks Digital Lifestyle Show has just been released – its show 305 and we are joined by a special guest to talk about the Center for Computing History.

The guys and girls from the Center for Computing History who put on the excellent Gadget Hall of Fame exhibit at the recent Gadget Show Live have posted a video they took at the event. And if you like retro tech you will love the video.
