So after the reception last night it seemed a little thinner on the ground this morning! There is also unlike most ICT conferences NO FREE WIRELESS....
I realise people need time to catch up with urgent emails, but prefer the idea of having scheduled sessions where people can check their email, rather than doing it throughout the day (and throughout the talks!).
It was interesting to note that the lack of free wireless didn't cause too much of an uproar...

Just as well. Keeps the tongues wagging in the name of clouds and grids!
Thanks to the organizers for the not-free wireless: finally even keyboard zombies were paying attention to the talks ;-)
Great event!
I agree Bernhard!
