1. You may recall that I'm an ambassador for the young people's sexual health charity Brook. Some Brook employees are running the London 10K race next weekend (I am not able to join them, sadly, due to my injured shoulder) to raise funds for the charity. If you'd like to help support all their hard work, you can donate here. Please give generously: we need people like Brook.
3. Speaking of Ben Goldacre, I will be chairing his "Beyond Bad Science" and Bill Thompson's "10 cultures" sessions at Open Tech this coming Saturday, as well as moderating Suw Charman-Anderson's "Women in Tech" session. They – and all the other talks – are going to be great sessions with some fantastic debates: come along and join in!
