Last Monday we had a chance to show the dvd of our trip to Kuala Lumpur to S4C's Chief Executive and Chair of Skillset Wales, Iona Jones. It was a great opportunity to chat to her about our experiences in Malaysia, as well as our work since then in Wales - particularly for the Urdd Eisteddfod.

Later that evening we attended a graduation ceremony for previous Dimension 10 students in the Millenium Centre. There was a really great turnout with over 60 guests from the industry, so it proved to be a great chance to meet people and discuss what we have been doing on our course.

On Tuesday we had an Exit Strategy careers day organised by Cyfle. It was a really valuable day with some useful advice on working as a freelancer, tax issues and CVs from speakers from the industry. Our course finishes on September 15th so it was helpful to get some career advice as the time for searching for employment is fast approaching.

Back at Green Bay I have been working hard on a new CSS-based database-driven version of the website using php and MySQL. I also had the opportunity to brief the staff on new media issues today and am presenting a short paper at the board meeting tomorrow morning. It was great to have the chance to share my knowledge with the other members of staff here and hopefully it will lead to Green Bay developing ideas for interactive content in the near future.
