Mad ramblings whenever I feel like it….

until BarCamp Ireland in Cork…

Really looking forward to it at this point, especially as it means a half day off work and a weekend away for me!

The list of attendees is up over 100 now, and there’s a great mix going to be attending - however, from a quick straw poll, only 10% of attendees will be women… It’s a shame really, there are plenty of us working in the industry! Hopefully if this Barcamp goes well, then we will get a chance to hold one in Dublin later on, we might manage some more attendance there…

I also have to be careful, as some of the names can be misleading… I had mentioned to the hubbie that “Michelle” from Blacknight was attending, but apparently it’s pronounced “Mee-Kay-Lee” and Michele Neylon might be annoyed that I assumed he was female!!

Me-KAY-lah attracts M.Neylon better than any other pronunciation. Perhaps it’s my American accent.

And “Bernie” can be a male.

Should I say that in fairness, I wasn’t sure about you at first glance? :-)
Your blogs give you away however…
