We're setting up a SMS wall and hoping the participants will text in their thoughts around new tech....
Full post follows...
Here's the results of the text wall that we set up for the Mobile Phone workshop at Abervan & Merthyr Vale Darby & Joan Club.
The Darby and Joan club is a well-attended group. A good number of its members owned mobiles with varying degrees of familiarity with their handsets. Mog and I enjoyed this session a great deal - it's always rewarding to be able to answer questions, demonstrate new tricks and show people how to do things they're stuck on. However one member stumped the GEECS - we couldn't work out how to delete sent text messages from a Sagem handset! (We have since discovered that there isn't a way to do it - phew!)
Nina the group leader has invited us back to do some further sessions with the group, and one lady in particular had a huge amount of interest in our work as she had worked with the BBC's Capture Wales project previously and made her own Digital Story.
We'd also like to wish Betty a happy birthday, and say thanks ever so much for the birthday cake! We like cake :)
