Just finished 4 days at the web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco. The highlights for me were the Forrester sessions, microblogging session, getting my first on camera interview and Fake Steve Jobs. Pictures aren't the best, needed a better camera, but am still impressed by my phone's ability. Also of special note is that the conference, that hosts about 5K attendees, went green this year, replacing water bottles with water coolers, limiting amount of paper produced and recycling badges after the show.
The South Park booth crawl was a fun idea. I cruised the parties with the two best sidekicks, Dana and Mike. The first party was held in a modern art reject gallery. This month's pieces were arctic themes made of cotton balls- made for good photos at least.I heard Yahoo put on the best party hands down. I think a lot more people would have gone to the Six apart party but it was too far away. I personally liked the high class apps and wine at the Federated Media party. And the mojitos at Jack Falstaff were the worst!
And I saved the best for last...The W hotel. My hats off to you guys, you really know how to make the perfect stay complete with bliss bath products, an ipod doc with speakers and a fiber optic Buddah. Not to mention I had the most amazing view of the Bay Bridge. I had to order risotto from the XYZ bar too, delicious. My only complaint was making us use revolving doors with huge suitcases, my ankles are still bruised!
