We had the first Blindside event on Tuesday 27th Feb. It wasn’t a launch; more a barnraising that brings together a community with a common purpose to an empty space where we can do something useful.

The community is all of us who care what might go wrong in the information age. This includes NGOs, government and business. We had guests from Holland and Croatia, ORG and No2ID, Sun, Microsoft and Vega, the Home Office, 10 Downing Street and SOCA.

Wendy Grossman did a write up for The Register which kept Chris’s server busy. Thanks to Chris x3, Ian, Ruth, Glyn, Abbie, Nigel, Beata, Erik and all who came.
