EIF 08 

The world’s most important festival that seeks to expand the creative culture of games and interactive entertainment, is now open for registration.

EIF 2008 will take place from Sunday 10th to Tuesday 12th August, and will this year move to the Edinburgh International Conference Centre as part of a move to develop the scale and profile of the event which this year includes a number of new initiatives and changes from previous years.

An SQA Consultation Event is organised for the proposed new HND Computer Games course on the 12 August.

Design, Media and Computing Curriculum team will be represented at the event.

TALK107, the Edinburgh-based all-talk station, has recorded a big increase in listners following programme changes earlier this year.

Scotland’s only commercial speech radio station saw the total hours it was listened to rise to a record 300,000 hours a week.
