NIWeek 2008

NIWeek 2008 is finished and I want to thank everyone who attended. It was a fun and interesting conference. I especially want to thank those of you who told me that you read my blog! It was great to meet you in person! And, yes, I will try to post more often. :-)

Slightly off-topic... does anyone know of any research in the area of seating fragmentation for large groups of people? I have a hypothesis that we'd get more useful seats in the same space if we left more rows open, even though we'd have fewer chairs. (I can't help pondering this; there's something about the engineering mind that detests inefficiency, even in keynote seating arrangements).

Speaking of the engineering mind, have you seen the "An Engineering Mind" videos on YouTube (that they showed before the NIWeek keynotes). Yeah, I know that guy. :-)

Safe journey home to all our visiting friends!
