Like many people I attended with the intention of sitting in the background watching and learning, however I was prepared to present if need be. By  prepared I meen gluegunned some ducks to a load of fairy lights and packed an arduino.

I didn’t take any notes during the days as I was streaming the event into OpenSim from my laptop with my isite camera. I dont recommend this for future events. Nor was this intended before the day. Below are few of the talks that I took away with me.

  • Martin Dix (@martindix) from currentcost spoke and suprised us all with his free gift  (More about this in a future post) and some statistics about how many current costs had been produced.
  • The Aimee API
  • Electricity 2.0 by Tom Raftery link for a previous video of this talk

There were lots of other areas discussed over the course of the day making it very interesting. I attempted to present some of the work I had done in OpenSim as well as my twittering flat.

I drove the two guys from theAttick who agreed to do the filming and sound for the day, great guys, slightly insane but great. I hope to get some of their videos on here soon.

Sorry for the lack of information, in this post next time I will make sure I can take some notes :)
