		<description><![CDATA[At the moment I’m working on my talk for the Soton Digital conference, entitled ‘Isn’t Ajax a football team? How Developers and Non-Developers can work together more effectively’. It’s thrown up some interesting ideas on the nature of speeches, presentations and conference ‘talks’.

The past few months have been incredibly busy with public speaking engagements ranging from talks at breakfast seminars to participation in speaking contests across the country. Great times!
