Tuesday is the first day of the Microsoft Global Hosting Partner Summit. And rather than hit the ground running with the sessions, keynotes and exhibiting, Microsoft let attendees ease their way into things; while registration opened at 9:00 this morning, the day’s only two sessions began at 3:00.
No complaints here. I’ve had a few recent experiences with waiting in line at registration while the keynote sessions were going, and that was enough to make easing into this one a pleasant experience.
That left us with a few hours leading up to the start of the sessions, we spent a very small portion of that setting up our booth (which, if you’re at the event is not difficult to find), and I spent the rest reading up on the schedule and taking some photos of the setup.
I’ll be posting those photos up on Flickr when I post this blog, so I’ll include a few in here if I’m able to (a lack of Internet is a problem I’ll go out on a limb and say I will not encounter in downtown Seattle).
They won’t all be here in the blog, of course, so if you want to see our photos from the event (which I’ll be updating as often as I can), check out our WHIR Flickr page at www.flickr.com/whir.
I’ll be posting notes from workshops and keynotes later, so keep checking back here for more coverage of the event.
