Day 1 of conference

Weren’t able to liveblog this morning despite being prepared to because of (and I’m using the Convention Centre technician’s technical term here) “flaky connections”. I’ve shelled out $20 for a day’s wireless access but the access is not uniformly available throughout the building, with some areas seeming blackspots. Most annoying, and it’s meant that I haven’t had regular access for much of the day.

Apart from that the conference itself has been interesting, with some thought provoking talks (especially Andy Powell’s keynote this am), but I will have to distill my notes for a later post.

M wasn’t well yesterday with a bad gut, but I think he’s a lot better today and has been gallivanting around Melbourne with his aunts while I have been grappling with the connection. (hmmph)
