SciFoo Day 1
What I love about coming to conferences is that I sometimes get to meet people who have done things I love. Now, I’ve never been one to admire people from afar. I always tell them. Life’s too short not to. I have no embarrassment whatsoever in gushing to someone about their work. Sometimes I think people are a bit weirded out by it.
Last night, I was sooooo happy to be able to tell Chris Riley that I LOVED (lovedlovedloved) his film. I saw him across the room, left Brian and basically interrupted a conversation he was having (sorry) to dork out. Brian then came over and we talked The Apollo Moon Missions for ages.
I then spoke to Jane MacGonigal who I was so happy to finally meet in person as she’s one of the Girl Geeks whose work I particularly admire. I was totally into The Beast. It changed my life and how I think of the web (and when I met Spielberg the other month I told him how the marketing of his film was revolutionary)… I was so happy when I Love Bees happened and Jane came to prominence that there was a young, intelligent, attractive, NORMAL woman in charge of it. I heart her.
Anyway, there’s loads more to write, but we’ve got to get over to Google for a busy day.
