GeoWeb is now underway, and Brian Noyle and I have made our way up to Vancouver, Canada, just in time for a heat wave – not what you’d expect for this part of the world, but better than rain.
We got in yesterday, and spent most of the afternoon roaming around downtown with a posse of geo-blogger/tweeters, including James Fee (@cageyjames ), Sean Gorman (@SeanGorman), Steve Citon-Pousty (@TheSteve0 ).
Somewhere around 5:00 we picked up Peter Batty (@pmbatty), crashed the local OSGeo meeting.
After finishing off their pizza, and a brief a WxS vs. REST skirmish, we acquired Jason Birch (@jasonbirch) and others. As could be expected, beers, food and geogeekness ensued.
Not a lot of tweeting-on-the-fly though as many of us are on very limited/pricey roaming data plans. Assuming the wireless at the conference stays up, there should be some interesting stuff flying around. Seems to be a mix of #geoweb09 and #geoweb being used as hashtags at this point, so maybe pop up a search column in TweetDeck and follow along (or heckle from afar!) More later…
