We had a very interesting invited talk last week from Jan Blanchard of TouristRepublic / TouristR, giving an overview of TouristR and a forthcoming project called TripPlanr.
I first met Jan when he visited us here in March, and since then at various events such as the Galway OpenCoffee meetups, but we had about 25-30 people from DERI at the presentation on Wednesday and also had some good questions / answers and discussions with Jan and TouristR developer Conor after the talk…

Thanks very much for inviting us John. Some of the ideas discussed during the questions / answers sessions were very helpful. It shows the quality and forward thinking of the audience and individuals working at DERI. Thank you to every one who attended the talk.
