It has been a couple of weeks since homecamp and I haven’t written a blog about it. Henous I hear you say. But seriously, I am so busy at the moment. Pulling off Home Camp in 3 weeks was hard enough, but the follow up was almost as hard. Juggling it amongst client work, was even harder.

There has been some great blog posts about Home Camp and I’ll not attempt to regurgitate their content about the day. Here are a selection, and if you are missing from the list, let me know.

I have forgotten loads of blogs that have mentioned Home Camp. The community support has been unbelieveable.  Please do not be offended, I have just been so busy.

There was also a couple of home camp logos created over the weekend. These were beyond my wildest dreams. The community took over and sorted out what was needed.

For me, the ultimate was meeting Andy Stanford-Clark – the guy monitors his mousetraps, what’s not to like? 

You can see his session on Andy Piper’s blog.  Andy can check the resistance of the cheese in the mousetraps to determine whether the cheese is desirable to a mouse or not.  Genius.  Genius in lab coat proportions. I want to go out and buy a labcoat and do experiments.

We had a great day and I am looking forward to the next event in March 2009. We paved the way for the next event and I am excited by the reaction we have had from the first event.

My favourite video from the day is the community interviews:

Roll on March 2009!
