Letztlich will ich mich aber nicht wirklich beklagen, denn einerseits ist das Inhaltliche einer Konferenz genauso wichtig wie die Menschen, die man dort antrifft. Und das Letztere hats für mich irgendwo wieder rausgerissen, ich für meinen Teil habe die Gespräche genossen und freue mich über neue Bekanntschaften. Mag auch daran liegen, dass insb. Blogger Socializer sind und eben von diesem “Socializing” zehren:)

I wonder what this conference would have looked like if the organizers would have sat down with Kathy Sierra and Jesse James Garrett BEFORE they started the planing and would have listens to their insights on creating passionate users and building beautiful and elegant solutions that work?

Anyhow, thanks for introducing us to the ideas of these brilliant minds and others like Tom Coates, Lisa Reichelt, Matt Biddulph, and a lot more.

You can’t simply take a conference from the US, put it into an airplane and hope that the european web scene will be happy with it. During Tim O’Reillys keynote, they even had those super embarassing us talk show typical cheerleaders in the front rows. This was a good proof for not understanding europe and especially the germans at all, even though they obviously noticed and stopped that soon. Many of the discussion formats were not in-depth, they were only scratching a little bit on the surface.
