« MeshU wrap up, a tad bit delayed | Shopping Notes I feel your pain, computers have no fashion sense. » |
Somehow i forgot to tell my faithful readers that my little web video won me a free ticket to Mesh U. It was a very productive day, I met tonnes of interesting people and next year I am paying to go. As conferences go it's great value. Thanks to CommandN for running the contest and for giving me the prize. The presentations were great, people kept asking me about my EEEPC and someone even accused me of being a microcelebrity. I aspire to microcelebrity status so that was quite gratifying. I regret that I didn't register for Mesh before they sold out, I won't make the same mistake next year. The one good thing is that my Mesh U badge will get me into the afterparties for the next few days so all is not lost. I hope to meet Amber Mac and thank her in person tomorrow.
I bailed on the after party at the Drake after smoozing for an appropriate time to attend the Marlies game at the Ricoh. The Marlies unfortunately did not prevail over Chicago. After I dry out I will write more about Mesh U but for now I wanted to give my first impressions.
