Killing Time at Necc 2008

This is pre-session day and I am not attending a pre-session. Cindy is off to a meeting with ADEs and I am exploring.

Here is a short video from the Convention Center. I am spending a little time in the Bloggers’ Cafe. Lots of folks staring at their computer screens. Some even talk. Electrical plugins – very important. The final scene is what I tend to associate with NECC – the buses. No other conference I attend has a fleet of buses to move folks about.

I shot the video with a Flip with a quick assembly in iMovie. Flickr translates the content to a flash file. Moving about with both my computer and camera bags in the heat of the South is a bit much so the Flip is perfect. I should get a commission for endorsements.

I promise more substantive comments tomorrow. Today, I play.

NECC has one of the largest vendor areas I have encountered at any conference. Today was setup day and the roadies (if that is what they would be called) were busy onloading and assembling.
