Multimedia Presentation

This is abit of a blog catch up. Last Friday, a few of us did our presentations on multimedia pioneers. I did mine on Douglas Engelbart. It went better than expected, and talked for about 15 minutes with questions afterwards on the man who pioneered the mouse, amongst other things. I spoke about Engelbart's vision of augmenting computers to help us to share knowledge, and then be more able to solve problems. I included a clip from the famous 1968 'Mother of all demos'. I also showed a timeline of how the design of the mouse has evolved since its 1968 inception, culminating in the Mac's "Mighty Mouse".
