When I take note on my computer I use windows Notepad.  It’s simple, it’s easy to organise, quick to load up and easy to search.  During Reboot 7, I tok some notes, these now follow in the format I typed them in. 

Lots of very clever people - yet _I_ can understand what people are talking about.

Doc Searls, very clever, very good talker.

The idea that by choosing the metaphor, we can influence how things and the laws that govern them are implementated.

IRC backchat is superiorly sarcastic and informative.

There was some amusement that the speakers all seemed to say "fuck" at some point. So much so that it turned into a form of competition.

Some hard decisions in deciding which of the three rooms to see.

Towels only work for so long in stopping your laptop from burning your lap.

Is my laptop wallpaper "Cool"?

For foreigners - a sandwich is 'lunch'.

Some people say lie about what they are going to talk about.

If you don't prepare your talk, then I'm afraid that you are dead in the water.

Powerpoint _can_ be used to make presentations interesting.

Ben Hammersley is _excellent_

Lots of people are quite evangelical about Skype.

IRCing with people sitting 3 seats away.

There are some A-listers who _really_ do have a huge ego.

Humour in your talks makes them an order of magnitude better.

FUCK! MORNING!

Trains are brilliant, lack of litter, people speak English, and are POLITE.

Bloody Swedes, at 2 bloody o'bloody clock in the bloody morning *shouting* outside my door.

Continental breakfast is no such bloody thing whatsoever – it’s bread and honey.

The whole ‘moving into a new flat’ thing is turning into one huge pain in the rear.  My electricity and gas are buggered up, I may be getting gas sometime next week, no ida whn my electricity will be fixed.  There is dust everywhere, and no matter how much we sweep/brush/vacuum, there just seems to be more of it than ever.

Still, stripping wallpaper is very cathartic.

Two nightshifts now (Wednesday and Thursday), so with a bit of luck I’ll have something interesting to write about soon.

It’s funny to think “Oh good, work, a chance to relax”.
