Back from DLD

First of all, thanks a lot to Hubert Burda and of course to the entire team organizing the event. I had a great time, I was inspired and I will surely come again. The event was a great mix of people leading to very good networking indeed and some very inspirational talks, for example from Brian Cox about the Large Hadron Collider at Cern seen here showing us the one formula that explains everything :). And now I am stuck, because there are too many recollections, like waterball at the party, Henning on the Segway, loads of different people including old and lots of new faces, a great panel on How to be Good, Where are the Editors, The Billion Dollar Bubble (with Marissa Mayer talking live about the problem of the google.de domain from the night before) , and more. I really have to agree with Martin that Arianna Huffington rocks and the panel with Tarik Krim from NetVibes, Craig Newmark from Craigslist (see Martin’s video), Jim Spanfeller from Forbes and David Sifry (see his great photos from DLD. He’s a prime lens freak by the way, which I learned at the party :)) from Technorati was very good indeed. Because mentioning NetVibes, I have to also say that meeting Christoph from Pageflakes (and finally talking to him a bit longer after having seen him at MediaTech and Le Web :)) as well as a new colleague that will become official on Monday, was great. But that’s it from me and it’s back to working on Ormigo and writing down all the great feedback we received.

You can watch many of the panels here. Check out Arianna’s post about DLD or simply follow DLD at Technorati.
