I’m currently in the break-out area for The Next Web at Westergasfabriek The Next Web Conference, for which registration opens in about 30 minutes. I am here early to grab a few interviews while people are still working out whether I’m worth speaking to or not…

And you know - I’m excited. There’s a buzz already in the hotel yesterday where a lot of delegates are camped, and a few gatherings have already taken place - an ebuddy party and a pownce people meetup to name just two. I of course stayed in with my slippers and pipe, a chocomel and my rss reader. A local free newspaper had an article about QR codes on Wednesday, which made me smile, as I’ve had 400 stickers made up which show a QR code that links to this blog - and have absolutely no other identifying markings.

I am hoping to do a few interviews using sound & the odd little video, and the next web awards are looking very interesting. Watch thsi space, and of course the blog at http://thenextweb.org
