Sorry to hear that Underpangs

It has been a popular event... the only thing I can recommend is that (and I make no garentees on this at all) you come along on the night and see if you can grab the place from people who don't turn up.

Part of the blurb says "Talk about the future with experts." but in this hype of 'Web 2.0' do "experts" really exist or matter? Isn't it rather like Time Magazine's Person of the Year ..

/me declares a possible bias here as I'm on the panel ;-P
