what's hot what's not

I don't as a general rule attend conferences, seminars, tradeshows or other gatherings. I really wished I could have attended Supernova 2002. Not only was blogging occuring, but the roster of speakers had perhaps the best lineup to discuss the exploration of the distributed future.
