Heading back home

Well – BrainShare Barcelona is over for another year. I’m just now collating the feedback from this week. Overall a very very positive event.

I’m getting on a plane this morning to head back to Utah – Barcelona -> London Heathrow -> Chicago -> Salt Lake City.

It’s an early start (urg – up at 5am!) – but at least I’ll be back in Utah early evening.

I’ll post the final photos and keynote reports sometime early next week.

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.
