Watching the end of one of the talks live right now!

Oh, there's Albert fiddling with the mic for the next (female) speaker...

Hi Albert,

Was your laptop ck after Leo dropped the the Guinness on it. I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Its a pity they dont have an audience mic, you cant hear the questions asked!

some great talks!

pity there is no downloading (or is there?) to fast forward bits...

Well, the pieces have to stream in real time first, and be saved once finished, then compressed and made easy to download. I'd say Albert will do this.

Just move the slider; though as Seanie says it takes a while to stream. We got the audience mic sorted out for some of the later sessions.

Hectic weekend! 3 well attended public lectures, nearly 100 registered delegates, nearly 40 talks, about 20 secondary school students, 30 or so primary students, music and dance, slasa lessons(!), two dinners, excursions to Beaghmore (we saw a couple of stars!), Observatory and the Planetarium, 2 live talks over skype/phone, parallel education workshops, live online video, live conference in second life. I think all involved need a good rest!

Thanks to those of you who managed to make it up to join us!

Wishing I was there Albert, wishing I was there... Sounds like it was a great couple of days.

Seanie.
