You dresssed up for that picture? ;-)

It was a picture for a magazine, for which I wrote an article. I did dress up for that, 'cos it's a very formal business magazine. :)

Ah, @media... I would have loved to go, all of my favourite web gurus under the same roof. %) But, unfortunately I couldn't afford it. Maybe next time...

Don't you forget to keep us posted on what it's like. :)

Have fun and take lots of pics.

#5 · Hayo Bethlehem · Jun 2, 2005 (11:08)

And start some fights about xhtml!!!

I would love to, but college goes first and it's a bit to pricey for me right now. Take lots of photos and blog about everything said on the panels ;)

#7 · Faruk Ateş · Jun 2, 2005 (12:03)

There will be pictures! And constant updates. :)

#8 · bruce lawson · Jun 2, 2005 (21:54)

I'm going! See you there man!

Here I go away for a week, and suddenly you have CSS!
Amazing!

But what's with the layout of the input fields above this textarea? They're not aligning...

Anyway...

Man, I'd wish to go there! My (new) company would pay for me and all, but because I was in the midst of changing jobs when this came up I couldn't register, and when I had swithced jobs it was full.

And, alas, the waiting list turned out nowhere either... :-(

But make sure you have great fun, and we'll meet in some other, even bigger and better conference, some time in the future!

Bruce,
Excellent! I've added you to the list :)

Robert,
Hey, I know it took me a while to add comments and feeds, but on the whole, I can be pretty speedy. :)

The comments (form + actual comments) are still completely unstyled. They're odd and such, and it will change soon. This weekend, with some luck. :)

Faruk - I'm pleased to finally announce that I will be there as well -- looking forward to meeting you!

#12 · Faruk Ateş · Jun 3, 2005 (15:35)

Derek,
That's great to hear! *adds you to the list* Definitely looking forward to meeting you, I found your interview on WSG very enlightening.

#13 · Zach · Jun 3, 2005 (21:58)

It shall be fantastic :D

#14 · Peter J.Lambert · Jun 4, 2005 (23:54)

I'm there. See you next thursday.

#15 · Alex Armstrong · Jun 7, 2005 (18:14)

See you there, I'm there from Wednesday evening

#16 · Faruk Ateş · Jun 7, 2005 (20:22)

Alex, so am I. I'm staying at the Holiday Inn Express, Southwark str. :)

#17 · Andy Hume · Jun 8, 2005 (12:03)

Oxton reckons he's not coming. Personally I reckon it's a big trick, just so he can make a grand entrance halfway through day 1.

Look forward to meeting some of you guys!

All times are in CET. It is now 19:45.
