Sunday morning, kind of quiet. I wonder how many people forgot to move their clocks forward last night.

Saturday was pretty good. The panels as a whole seemed to get off to a better start than last year, although from talking to others I may just have been lucky with my selection. I got stuck in the video-enabled consolation section after missing the start of Kathy Sierra’s keynote yesterday, but at least I got lunch at Las Manitas out of it.

Speaking of Las Manitas, it sounds like some development group wants to demolish the block to put up a huge hotel. They say Las Manitas is an institution and that they’ll move it, but so much of what makes the place great is the building itself. The holy trinity of good food, trashed patio and bad service really should be preserved. Besides, I’m sure any replacement building wouldn’t require guests to walk through the kitchen to get to the patio, and that would be a tragedy.

Hung out at Barcamp Austin last night. I didn’t really pay attention to the presentations that much, but did run into a few people and have some good conversations about tagging, identity 2.0 and other things that would make my friends want to slap me.

Lots of network connectivity problems today. Not sure when I’ll be able to post this.
