This episode tackles a current and complicated area of Digital Body language. Digital communication, learning and interaction continue their upward trend and my guest this week is on the leading edge of that curve. The wonderful Jo Cook (@LightbulbJo on Twitter) and I take this podcast down a particular route for digital body language. We focus on the interactional aspects and we explore how we can use and harness the power and opportunities technology offers us to actively consider if not read others’ Digital Body Language. We are aware enough that it is not all sunshine and rainbows and so we get into the challenges and strategies to overcome them too.
