Women @ Reboot
Although I didn't have something to present at Reboot this year, I did want to make a contribution to the event. The week before Reboot I came up with the idea: wouldn't it be nice to hear more of the female Reboot-voice? This because of the low number of female speakers at Reboot (although there were more than last year).
I mailed Trine-Maria with the idea and she loved to team up with me and capture the female voice during Reboot. The result is 19 short interviews with women attending Reboot 8.0 answering the question: what turns you on (at work)? In time I hope to make a nicely designed collage of these interviews, but for now I have to direct you to the unedited version of the seperate interviews at youtube.com. Have fun!
Reboot 8 - digestion time.
Yesterday evening we arrived back home from Copenhagen. What a rollercoaster ride it has been these last five days. I guess I said something similar last year, after Reboot 7. Too badI didn't manage to do some live blogging this year. The internet connection (NOT the wifi) was a bit dodgy this time, but the people from Reboot were not to blame. So uploading was a pain and after a few hours into the conference I stopped trying. At least the backchannel was working most of the time (though it was very tame this year!)Another argument for not blogging during the event was the number of people around to have pleasant conversations with. The usual gang was there (Lee, Johnnie, James, Riccardo, Martin, Nico, Michael, Flemming, Thomas Burg, Trine-Maria (who am I forgetting?)) and new faces including all the girls I taped on video (more on that later) Peter Rukavina (missed him last year, was already asleep), Robert Paterson, Carsten Ohm, Dannie Jost, Oliver Gassner, Alper, Dan Dixon, Euan Semple, the people during dinner on the second day (did you see the bottle of wine we drank?) and so many others I shook hands with. And not to forget the lovely evening Ton and I spent with Jacob Boetter (although he's a guy that makes me feel like I've wasted so many years already ;-) ).
It's time now to digest all the stuff that I've taken in and hopefully I'll be doing that the coming week.
