NotCon '04
Just got back from NotCon, could have blogged while I was there, but was busy on the IRC chan - irc://irc.freenode.net/notcon (log). I really enjoyed the day, the highlight for me was the group. I really liked being hooked up to a busy network and chatting to people on IRC in the background. Tom Coates of plasticbag.org (who I met at the blogmeet a few weeks ago) had SubEthaEdit running and was using it to take notes. All the Panther users contributed, including me. The final file is a treasure trove, especially as I missed the first couple of hours. It was just great editing the file and contributing and it was much slicker than a wiki.
The talks were pretty good, the political stuff downstairs was the most interesting IMHO. The techie stuff was a bit obvious really. I would link to everything, but all the URLs are on the NotCon pages. The best stuff was Tim Ireland’s MPs and Weblogs and, of course, Alex McLean (of Dorkbot) and his live hardcore coding.
Phew, bit tired now. Might blog more when more awake.
