We are keen to find bright-sparks with seeds of great ideas that use connected technologies in innovative ways to further social or environmental causes
We intend to use the collaboration workshops to develop the ideas - using team of delegates as mentors over the two days
Unlitd will provide resources to the best of the developed ideas
If you now any bright sparks that could benefit from this amazing opportunity, please send them our way as soon as possible

is anyone doing interesting interface/interaction design around numbers, maths or finance?
these couple of days have got me thinking that I really need to focus
on the interaction design of www.mycake.org. we've done some work on
making the visualisation of financial outputs (profit and loss etc)
easier to interact with ... but there's a long way to go.
i think the landing page the otherside of the login is probably my start point.
Antivirus software company Sophos recently announced that many Social Networks are opening its users up to the possibility of Identity Fraud. "It's alarming to hear about some of the information people were prepared to share with a complete stranger online, when they are sent a friend request on Facebook out of the blue. Facebook's privacy features actually go far beyond those of many competing social networking sites, but users are simply not choosing their privacy options carefully and have not learnt how to behave safely online," said Carole Theriault, host of the Sophos podcast.
Adobe recently demonstrated a new type of lens which, like an insect's compound eye, transmits several smaller images to the camera. The result is a photograph with multiple sub-views, each taken from a slightly different vantage point at exactly the same time. From this information, the computer can reconstruct a model of the scene in three dimensions. This looks set to revolutionise photography, and potentially film-making. http://www.news.com/8301-13580_3-9793272-39.html
This demonstration is incredible, especially the part where Blaise shows the interactive Notre Dame model, constructed from Flickr photos. This really shows the power of collective experiences being harnessed by innovative interfaces.
