Foo Camp roundup

I got back from O’Reilly’s Foo Camp a few of days ago.  It was… what’s the expression the kids used to say…Insanely Great.  There were lots of impressive people and keen sessions.  Among other things, we figured out how to do electronic voting exactly right.  More on that later.

The picture, by James Duncan, is of a working 3D chocolate printer made out of Lego.  Click on the thumbnail for a larger view.

Just for the record, I “camped” in the Sebastapol Holiday Inn Express.  It didn’t make me any smarter, but at least I could snore without making any permanent enemies among the world’s Alpha Geeks.

Since I’m way late in blogging this event, I’ll take the path of least resistance and just provide a partial (!) list of other blog coverage.  This Internet thing is gonna be big some day.
