Ignite UK Review

January 25th, 2009

I hadn’t had a chance to fully collect my thoughts on Ignite due to the fact I was too excited about this weekend but since I’m on a train and playing with database Schema’s I thought i’d put some thoughts down.

  • First of all, hat tip to Craig and Imran (and Linda) for getting it up and running.
  • The venue was packed and really got me thinking about “Think Visibility”, we might be announcing something next week (hint hint ;) )
  • Some people really broke the “no sales pitch rule”, I’m talking about you Mr telephone from your website and You Mr have sex via twitter
  • The drinks + food ran out very quickly (I still managed to get some though)
  • Some of the talks went way over my head (Mr BBC Guy  who was not talking about sex and Mr artificial intelligence)
  • One of the comments said that the presentations should have been more serious, I disagree with that, it was a good to have a mix between some serious and high level presentations and a picture of a horses arse.
  • I thank Tom Scott for asking me to heckle him at a certain slide, then calling me a Dick with the next :P
  • That part of town really needs somewhere to go after 9pm that isn’t packed and playing shitty music
  • We arn’t going to the fenton again!
  • I think I was introduced to Monica about 4 or 5 times

    not only do you have to argue to get a room unlocked for 80! beer drinking punters, the light is shocking, you stick to the floor (Im not exaggerating) and it takes about 20 minutes to get served!

    Nice barmaids though :)
