And what a good time it was!

I’m quite impressed I made it through the day, having had about 3 hours sleep the night before, thanks to my son! It’s a sign of how interesting the event was that I even made it to a couple of social drinks after the workshop sessions had ended. After all, there aren’t many conferences/unconferences that give you free entry, interesting discussions, a free T-shirt, and about 5 bands in a private bar afterwards!

I’ll post in more detail tomorrow on the sessions I attended, once I’ve gone through my large collection of business cards, so I can make sure those responsible get some link-love. But one stand out moment for me was when something I blogged about on Grand Theft Auto was actually referenced in a session I attended, by someone who had no idea I was in the room! Surely that must be worth a couple of Google Page Ranks? Or +10 on Technorati.

It was another example of bringing together a fairly wide range of people with a shared interest in social media, and allowing them to express some pretty varied, disparate, and sometimes opposing views. And it definitely left me with a few things to think about.

All I can think about right now is sleeping… but I do remember that the date for the next event was announced with the location being London. I’ll let you know as soon as someone kindly reminds what the date actually is!
