Inspiration, trend spotter, motivator, evangelist. Take your pick.

What's in your favourites?

I love MIT Media Lab's Nicolas Negroponte, whose book 'Being Digital' is a constant inspiration. You can find a review of it here. I'm a big fan of Wired Magazine too. I believe in the role of technology to drive education in developing countries. So I always keep up to date with the One Laptop Per Child project. And yes, you'll find me on Facebook too.
