eTeching across the universe
After a great trip to Finland last week and a long flight in which my baggage got lost...I' live at eTech in San Diego sitting in the first of the sessions..this one about swarm technology which I'm quite interested in.

First couple of keynotes were disappointing...Tim O'Reilly gave a repeat of previous talks he has done and Helen Greiner from iRobot gave a very poor talk that was 90% sales pitch for her robots....so much could have been covered..ethics, swarm algorithms and plenty more instead it was videos and overviews of what they are doing.

Dined last night with a bunch of uber blogger types including the so called "British Intellectual eTech crowd" and a few others...lots of interesting talks.

I've picked well hotel-wise with a big room although a little basic but it has a bath free gym membership at one of the best gyms I've ever worked out at, laundry and many many useful things.

time to listen.....
