BrainShare Barcelona – day 3 – Wednesday 14th September

My second day of back to back meetings and presentations.

TUT 317 – ZENworks Linux Management best practices and TUT 315 – ZENworks Patch Management best practices

Lots of time preparing for the Thursday keynote. Just sitting back stage – and there are some incredible demos in store.

Barcelona #3

There is a distinct lack of an iron in the hotel.

There are dozens of Novell people with speaker shirts looking for an iron; the BrainShare event team had to ‘borrow’ one so that the shirts did not look crumpled.

The other funny is the difficulty of finding chewing gum.

I spent an hour with Alan Murray walking around the shopping centre next to the hotel looking for anywhere that sold gum. We spent nearly an hour hunting shops and a super market; finally we found a small news stand – and we bought up about 10 Euro of gum and mints. We looked like lunatics.

Up early for a final run through of the keynote. All went well – I co-presented with Alan Murray; we covered ZENworks 7, ZENworks 7 Linux Management and ZENworks 7 Asset Management. Everything worked well – and we were exactly within our time allocation.

BrainShare Barcelona – day 1 – Monday 12th September

Day 1 of BrainShare – and it feels like day 5 already!

I arrived in Barcelona on Friday and spent the whole of Saturday training our EMEA Category Specialists and Consultants. That was fun. It was great to see some familiar faces again.

Today I was building the keynote demo for the Tuesday keynote – all of the usual fun.

I also presented my first session of the week – TUT 315 – ZENworks Patch Management best practices.

I finally finished the evening rehearsing the keynote – late night again. I missed the ZENworks Community of Practice dinner – which was sad.
