I ran into Tim O'Reilly as I entered the door to FOO (Friends of O'Reilly). "Is this the first one of these?" I asked. "Yes," said Tim. "In fact, it was just an idea we had six weeks ago." So, here I am with 200 geeks for two days of, well, whatever it is that we decide to do for two days. At last the conference I've been waiting for: Hallway talk with occasional self-organized colloquia. At least that's what I think is going to happen. Maybe we're all going to get naked except for "Burning Man Sucks" baseball caps. I've already ran into bunches of people I either know and love or know of and respect. I'm so excited to be here that I actually went out and bought a tent. Me in a tent is like a trout in a holster. Everyone here is smarter than me. I'm really excited about being here. Posted

Interesting how a conference with no agenda but a bunch of interesting guys willing to go with the flow, sounds REALLY exciting.
