Had a great time at the Curtin conference. Presentation went well with good questions from the floor. Have a few days break in Perth then off to the Mensa Conference. Their theme is ‘sustainability’ and it looks like they have some good speakers.
All done and I still have time to work on the conferences. Amazing what can be done with scheduling.

This research explores the relationship between personality, decision making and engagement with digital networked technology at both the individual and societal level. The urgency to understand why people engage differently increases exponentially as digital networked
