The room is full of people in suits, but there are also lots of friends.

Bronwen Clune from Perthnorg
TVP says they get mainly rebranded bit wins.
Who's presenting for Tangler if Marty is in the US?
I am.
The panel includes;
* A blogger - Richard.
* A VC - Allan
* A journalist - Brad
* A corporate - Sensis.
Where's teh startup?
Says in the writeup that there is someone named Randal Leeb-du Toit who I guess is supposed to represent the startup as CEO of Yoick?
He's not on this panel.
Why don't Australians blog enough?
Shy?
Just waiting for the growth?
Too small?
Telstra guy got up to ask a question and just talked about how good Bigpond is and how telstra mobile is good. He almost got booed down. Terrible.
This is a bit corporate for me. I want Barcamp Goodness!
Wow, Brad just asked if anyone knew who Tangler was and 30% of room put their hand up.
YEEHAAARRR!!

Where's the stage?![]()
And why does Phil have his finger in his ear?
Do you know if there will be anything come out of this? I assume there will be with a journo present. Hope so, as I'd be interested to hear what comes from it, both in terms of new ideas and coverage of what exists now. What I'd be really interested in is what the corporates are thinking and how they are currently seeing things shaping up. That's the insight you don't get on the street.
Just did the demo. Some tech problems but got going.

James Dellow's report
I should've bought my Mac along... just to suvbert the hierarchy.
I think Ben Barren's post on his trip has more semblance of reality than mine: http://benbarren.blogspot.com/
Bronwen was the famous because I knew of her but not her last name.
Just like I know Madonna, Pele, Bono, Kylie and Frank.
Who is Kylie?
Wow guys, looks like fun. Wish I was there.
