To the right is a picture from the John Wayne International Airport in Santa Ana, California, where I flew in this afternoon.
I'm at UC Irvine with Rafi for a MacArthur Foundation Digital Media and Learning grantees meeting. We're joining a bunch of super smart people who are conducting a wide range of research, field building and direct service work in the digital media and learning field.
Just came from dinner at Benihana's followed by drinks at a local sports bar talking about the killer work that everyone is doing — social networks, digital games, virtual worlds, fan culture, etc.
Looks like its going to be a heady next couple of days conversating and strategizing about stuff that I love. Can't wait.
You can follow some livetweeting of the MacArthur Digital Media and Learning Grantee Meeting by me and others at this link. (Or just search for the #DML09" hashtag.)
