Dinosaur Robots and more!
Geek out to 5 Minute Live Demos, Q&A, Bar, Munchies and 200 of your favorite new tech buddies.
We'll be mixing it up with a handful of some pretty interesting web tools, including how to rent -- or put up for rent -- anything online, a search-within-video engine to help you better target ads; and a service to view that conference that you missed (or encode the conference you're holding); and an IT search tool that can index and digest data like a champ.
And, we'll get hand's-on with the world's smallest computer and we'll meet Pleo -- the famous robotic dinosaur! Touch him. He loves it. Let him rub up against your leg. He's got feelings too. It's going to be fun!
Like I said -- it's a mix -- and it's all good.
