I enjoyed it. Not the Budweiser mind. I drank about a thousand and still came out only mildly happy. They were £3.50 each as well. Three fucking fifty.

End of rant.

Otherwise it was an interesting evening. I met some people with quite well known blogs, including Simon of Minor 9th, a Guardian blog contest winner and a very nice young man. There were lots of nice people there. We talked about the nature of blogs of quite a lot and the differing views were interesting, blogs as journalism, blogs as publishing, blogs as diaries. Most interestingly, blogs as enterprise tools.

I kind of expecting more people talking about software and sociology and the possibilities for business and large scale projects. There wasn’t much of that at all. Which I guess isn’t so surprising, the people there were more into personal expression on a techie media than software engineers per se. It’s made me really excited about NotCon though!

Incidentally, I didn’t talk to Cory. Ladislav did though…
