Hi,I wrote a review of the TEDxLeeds 2010 event that took place last night - http://exploringleeds.blogspot.com/2010 ... form.htmlI did mean to post a 'this is coming up' post earlier in the week but it's been crazy hectic here at work (I'm about to go on a three week trip to the US, Mexico and Canada). The videos of the talks should be up on the TEDxLeeds site next week and I really recommend checking them out if you missed the event itself.I'm a little unsure about posting lots of links to events and posts on here but I think the events organised and promoted by tech types are probably off the radar of a lot of SL folks - they tend to be promoted via Twitter and conversations at other tech events - so I'd like to mention them here every now and then to encourage other local history and geography hobbyists to come along. If you have a look at my review you'll see there was plenty there that a booklover or luddite would still have found interesting since the focus was on cities and how they develop. (Not of course that anyone around here is a Luddite. )Alex
