Description: Missed my keynote speech at the recent Raspberry Jamboree? Don't worry as you can watch it here! On the 28th of February 2014 I ventured up to Manchester to attend Alan O'Donohoe's worldwide Raspberry Jamboree. The Jamboree is an annual event and that is what made it worth the extra transport effort ;-) I decided to give my presentation on a topic very dear to my heart... ROBOTS (Mwahahahahaha). However I had the the specific intent of showing people that they are the perfect means to teach computing in a fun and interesting manner - not that they are perfect for taking over the world (which they also are) ;-) I hope that you enjoy it - It was nerve-wracking as I am not very experienced in public speaking and the room was full of people! It is only the second talk I have ever done; my first being at the December 2013 CamJam Also this marks a momentous occasion as it is the first time I have ever uploaded a video with my face in it... Not sure whether a cheer is appropriate here or not Anyway, I'll let you see for yourself! Thanks, Matt The Raspberry Pi Guy P.S: This video is property of Alan O'Donohoe who kindly gave me permission to upload it under The Raspberry Pi Guy P.P.S: The blue robot that is visible in my presentation is in fact sold by Dawn Robotics Ltd.
