For the last two weeks, Digital Shoreditch has burst onto the tech and digital scene, bringing together creative, technical and entrepreneurial talent of East London and Tech City. The event includes presentations, workshops, open houses, networking dinners, startup jobs fair plus socials and parties across more than five venues from Shoreditch Town Hall to Hackney House.
The amount of content and things to do during the festival can be overwhelming but this does mean you can leave things to chance and make discoveries of your own. I really enjoyed the The Great Digital Exhibition downstairs in the basement of the main venue. My favourite displays were the Time Shifting Maze and the Interactive Portrait which are featured in the video above.
The layout of Shoreditch Town Hall included two separate breakout rooms for smaller presentations and networking at the back of the main room, though there wasn’t anywhere else to meet people except the main registration area downstairs which filled out into a T-Junction. Next year, it would be great to see a change in venue that allowed for more networking and break out spaces such as The Old Truman Brewery.
If you missed any of the presentations at Digital Shoreditch this year, then check out all the coverage via this page here.

Last week, Techfluff TV’s Alexandra Leslie went to the London Bloggers Meetup. This month’s meetup was held at the Elixir Bar in Euston, and took a look at music and social media. The event had a panel discussion on how the industry is changing as a result of blogging and social media. Guest speakers included Andrew Dubber (Professor of Music Industry Innovation at Birmingham City University, author of ‘Music in the Digital Age’ and ‘Understanding the Music Industries’, and advisor to Bandcamp), James Howard (Google+ Music in the UK) and Terry Tyldesley (founder of Kitmonsters). The three speakers had a lot of different answers for where they believed the industry was heading and why. Watch and see what bloggers and those in the music industry think is more important: participation or popularity?
