Gonzo Lotusphere 2008

I am up front between Ed Brill and Wild Bill. The Harrass the Developers session went quite well, and yes, Maureen Leland's dog had her puppies around 5am this morning. Had to ask.

Anyway, just to etch it down here, LS2009 will be January 18-22, right here. They also announced that they'd committed to keep Lotusphere here through 2015, which elicited the comment from Wild Bill, "time to buy that timeshare."

Even with all the people flying out this afternoon, the room is over 3/4 filled, which is very encouraging.

Looking up and down the row here, I don't see a single Windows laptop. Mooney has his BlackBook, Warren has his custom-wrapped MacBook Pro. MacBook Pro further down. I know three rows behind me Bruce Elgort has his Apple. Lots of Blackberries. Hope you're listening, IBM.

Whipits are in the house! Never knew they were useful for making Cheez Whiz, did ya? Didja get me mah Cheez-Whiz, boy?

I'll write more later.
