[Open-education] UberU is already here

Wed May 11 14:21:39 UTC 2016

Interesting …. we’re conducting some experiments in this space at the OU … specifically in putting OpenLearn badges into blockchains

Our initial website with a couple of screencasts of our demos can be found at: http://blockchain.open.ac.uk/

Cheers

John

UBER-U IS ALREADY HERE
Powered by Blockchain Technology
Across the world, Uber is transforming how citizens get around our cities and towns.

Think the concept of Uber-U is far-fetched? Think again - it is already here, if not yet in name, in practice.
