We’re in the final session. This is nice. Two women presenters, one male. Who says geeks have to be male. Reminds me of the first keynoter who told us, that contrary to popular opinion, lots of young girls are playing computer games.
Gadgets, both useful and pseudo useful. Laser pointers, Sony Vaio U70/U50, Tetzl MYO Headlamp (great if you’re in the Marriott when the lights go out as they did the other night), ReAir Duster, ScotteVest, slime controller, beer goggles (simulates what the four stages of intoxication feels like — Stephen just said “There’s four?”), toilet seats? Hmmm.
Although this is a big room, holds almost 500 people, yet the atmosphere is free wheeling, interactive, people commenting on what is being said up on stage. That’s symptomatic of the entire conference. It’s been dynamic, exciting, humorous, and instructive.
