On Thursday, I shall be taking part in a live debate hosted by The Times Online entitled ‘Is screen culture damaging our children’s brains?’ where I will be debating psychologist Tracey Alloway who recently made headlines by suggesting Facebook ‘enhances intelligence’ but Twitter ‘diminishes it’.
It one of those online chat things but you are welcome to sign up and take part. It happens at 1pm UK time which turns out to be far-too-early-o’clock Colombian time so I may be in my dressing gown. Don’t let that put you off.
An article on the same topic will also be coming out on Thursday which should help set the scene and which I’ll link to when it appears.

It seems that educating journalists may be the first step!
