The Who

In London with normal cold wet weather. Of course it must be as Wimbledon is on.

Trying not to think about education much for a few days but finished Richard Florida's book called The Flight of the Creative Class. Says alot about twenty first century ideas regarding the sort of people needed. New Zealand comes out ok but still alot of change needed particularly about educated people.

Went to see that great 60s band The Who last night. Well the half that are still alive that is. Amazing performance. For folk who are past 60 they sure know how to perform. 2hours of hard out rock. I hope I am still performing that well at 62.

Also reading The Search by John Batelle. Mainly about google but links in with my thinking about education and schooling is falling further behind where technology is moving.

Tomorrow off to Big Ben and other interesting places. Love London but it kills the bank balance.
