OK, I haven't lied too much. I just had the date wrong.

Yesterday night there was a feature on Newsnight about Barcamp and flock especially. It was a good laugh watching it. I was showing the creative chaos there. While not everything was 100% right, I suppose it was due to trying to munch the ideas down for the unsuspected victims, the TV viewer that is.

|Internet Part II: Return of the geeks? is a writeup by Paul Mason, a Barcamp bystander.

Barcamp, Amsterdam, over. It was an interesting time. A bunch of geeks coming from all over the plate got together to chat, discuss, brainstorm, share, fool around, hack, learn, teach, should I continue, no.

It was generally fulfilling. For me at least. First flock. I like this firefox based browser. The flock guys have the right ideas IMO. It is sleek, not really bigger than mom, has really nice tools like the blog editor, the shelf, the flickr topbar. You can sample del.icio.us on the fly. Mmm. Oh, yes, I'm writing this using flock. Waiting for the next developer preview. I wonder if we could do more to expose the various Drupal APIs so that they could be integrated into flock and firefox.
