Future of Web Apps

Given my tendency to flee for London at any available opportunity, you’ll not be surprised to learn I’m currently over for Future of Web Apps - I’m actually drafting this prior to leaving for registration and a dander around the expo floor before the conference itself starts tomorrow. Not sure where I or the other few bemuzed guys who showed up today got that impression, expo & conference starts tomorrow.

I’m particularly looking forward - as I imagine most people are - to hearing the keynote speakers Mark Zuckerberg (founder of Facebook) and Kevin Rose (founder of Digg) - as well as the talks on entrepreneurship, cloud computing, interface design, technology & psychology, community development and social networking. So much as I’m typically unreliable at blogging when I say I will, I’ll attempt to write up my thoughts over the duration - all the same my Twitter should be pretty reliable source of personal commentary.

I’ve also set somewhat of a challenge for myself while I’m here. I’m attempting, before I leave London, to clear my current backlog of work - which currently consists of three half finished client projects and two new client sites - as well as drafting a backlog of blog entries for goodonpaper, making repairs to Mucho Danke and preparing for the relaunch, sending the TwoStep website live & having lineups confirmed as far as February and making headway on a few other personal projects. It’s a mammoth task on paper - but I’m here alone for the guts of a week (with the conference, after-parties and Diggnation taking up around two days) - and I think it can be done. The past couple of months have demanded a lot of my time sorting out problems that got in the way of my work. Free of those distractions here in London, I’m determined to catch up before I hop on a plane home Saturday evening.

Took it a while back, but I was on an empty train a few times so it still counts …
