We’ve had an incredible run of guest bloggers here at Dangerously Irrelevant. Many thanks to Jason Dyer, my latest guest, who sparked a lot of conversation and gave us much to think about regarding the intersections of math and technology.

My next guest is Julie Lindsay, the Head of Information Technology at Qatar Academy, who also somehow finds time to blog regularly at E-Learning Journeys. I had the pleasure of meeting (and making a podcast with) Julie at the ASB Unplugged conference in Mumbai, India. You can learn more about Julie by visiting her wiki. As you will see, she’ll offer a rich international perspective to our discussions next week.
