Re: [Dfey-nw-discuss] "Tomorrow's Web"

[Tim Dobson]

Thanks to Ste for coming down to Tomorrow's Web with me. :)

It was... interesting, very umm mixed.

There were some absolutely excellent talks - one about freelancing and 
another about API's stick in my mind (and not just cause the guy 
compared open source software to software piracy! - he did apologise 
though :) ).

There were some not so great talks too and personally I found the way it 
was orientated on making loads of money a bit disconcerting. I'm all for 
making money :) :) but I'm fairly sure I can do it with using dodgy 
ethically unsound methods which involve hiring 14yro's on peanuts and 
following thousands of people on twitter every day. :P

Anyway, thanks to Ste for coming down, at some point I do intend to blog 
about it, I also have videos of a lot of the talks I attended which I'm 
going to be uploading if anyone is interested!

Thanks,

Tim
