What does it mean to be live? Part 3
Following from our previous posts on the 'The Virtual Presenter', “What does it mean to present in the ‘live’ world?”

Movies continue to be attractive because it’s worth seeing something on the big screen with big sound.
Currency is also vital. Seeing a movie before your friends do is worth bragging rights.
It also becomes a place to hang out for various reasons…

• What's your snack-bar? Are you leaving profits behinds?
