The end of an era. After 6 years of teaching and research, it was time to say goodbye to the VUB and @wise.vub.ac.be . It is nice to start something new, but I will definitely miss it.

This week, I started the academic year with the first lecture of my course on Human-Computer Interaction. It always makes me feel slightly old when I show the students a screenshot of the Magic Desk application and tell them that I "used" it on my Commodore 64 :-)
