Well, that was the day that was. It seems from Twitter than a number of people enjoyed what I did. The viewing stats were very low indeed, but that will be partly because most of it happened when the US was asleep, and partly due to the lack of interactivity. Having field reporters is all very well, but I think these things go much better when you have people online and can talk to them.
If anyone has any comments on the technology I’d be grateful if you could share them so I can do better next time.
My thanks are due to Paul Cornell, Tony Lee and Simon Gurr for agreeing to add their tweets to the coverage. Here’s hoping they found it useful too. Paul kept telling everyone he introduced me to about the live blog, so I guess he was happy with it.
Thanks also to all of the fabulous people I met during the day, including Amy of Birds of Geek, Asia Alfasi, Dave and Barry of Geek Syndicate, and Dennis of Zzizzl Comix. I’ll have more to say about all of them (ominous drum roll) when I write the con report.
And finally, thanks to Liam Sharp, Eugene Byrne and Rod Jones, all of whom I don’t see often enough.
