Session 2 is on the sofa’s as opposed to the main stage, lots of apologetic people in red T-Shirts sheepishly avoiding the lack of internet (though to be fair I’m up) the sofa are somewhat dark but comfy!

June 16, 2007 — Tim Nash
So its now 8:20 AM I have been on a high speed train (wireless internet!) nearly an hour heading for Hackday 2007, I’m really looking forward to the event which is being hosted by the BBC at Alexander palace. With the wireless internet at the event and through the power of power blogging hopefully I will be able to bring you the various sessions I attend, along with a mystery guest who will also be in attendance so what am I looking forward to?
