    Hey – I was hoping to get to tonight’s event but can’t make it.

    Can I ask exactly what you mean by the “emerging issue of social information overload” and also “leveraging online interactions and new media”? I feel like I should know what that means but the choice and use of language confuses me.

    Also I’d love it if you could give me some examples of what you mean by “everyday life” and any alternatives.

    Cheers!
    Simon

    Thanks for the comment Simon, if you have a look at Bernie’s About page at his Oxford Internet Institute microsite, that should give some further ideas.
