Teaming up with Apple

So today and tomorrow I’m at the education au Global Summit as a “thought leader”. It is a great opportunity to talk to loads of people about how Open Source and Open Standards can help education.

Anyway, I was amused when the “thought leader” from Apple spoke to me just before the start and said “oh you’re the Open Source person, yeah I assumed you’d be more technical so lets team up to get our teams to do some more interesting stuff on the website”. We will be logging what is happening live on a collaboration site, so it will be fun.

Always amusing having a talk with a clueless Apple employee.

Hi “prefer anon”, as I mentioned above, I was talking to people as a “thought leader” So I was on a table leading discussion, and also getting the chance to talk to lots of people.

Maybe next time, I’ll be invited as a speaker
