Title:	Putting your head through the Screen
Speaker:	Bill Thompson
Description:	Pervasive networks, easy access to the internet and social network tools like Twitter, Facebook and Seesmic are blurring the boundary between being online and being offline, while geolocation tools mean your friends – and stalkers – can track you in the real and the virtual worlds. Technology guru Bill Thompson will ask what implications this has for our sense of identity, and how can we know who we are when many of the people we spend our time with are only electronically available?
