I have attached the presentation for todays session. This was one I was practising at 3am this morning - and for a lot of the day with my presentation partner Sandra.

There was a low turn out for this one in what was a huge 500 seat room but gave us the chance to further develop our presentation skills. I will be interested to see the evaluation form's.

I have seen all the evaluation forms for the session I did with Declan (and there were a lot of forms). I'm pleased we got majority excellent with I think 1 fair (you can choose excellent, average, fair).

Bed early for me tonight for an at last catch up on sleep. Wednesday and Thursday morning I hope to attend sessions at 8am and 7am (my first sessions of the week) before I am due to be in the developer labs.

It is the party at Animal Kingdom tomorrow and then ask the developers on Thursday afternoon in the Swan Ballroom.

This whole thing has been a massive experience. Today was like my first day at work meeting a lot of the team I have worked with at Westford for ten months. This has been strange - I have had managers ask people where I am and they have been told "next to you" because they do not know what I look like.

I think I have been around everyone aside from Alan Lepofsky - but I will be catching up with him over the next few days I hope. Alan did you know they painted the dolphins fountain white this week for the first colour change in 12 years - the day after they were built green for the Second Life demo. That's amusing.

Friday sees me do an interview with the Wall Street Journal on blogging and working for IBM! That will be interesting - I am being child minded by the IBM press people in New York for obvious legal/press reasons.
