Leaving for eComm in Amsterdam - Will tweet conference talks

I'll be leaving for Amsterdam this afternoon to attend Fall eComm 2009. 

I plan to record my notes as I did at the HD Communications summit in NYC in September, i.e. I'll write my notes on Twitter in real time and then, after the conference, collate the results into one giant blog post (for my own sake as much as for yours, esteemed reader).

If you're interested in live coverage, follow my tweets at: http://twitter.com/brough

Whoever and whatever you follow, I assume the common tag people will be using (as before) will be "eComm" so that's another approach...

Shameless self-promotion:  My part in the conference:

On Wednesday morning, I'm speaking on Open Spectrum issues.  I will point out some laws of physics and emerging technology changes that, together, suggest a new, better focus for open spectrum efforts.

On Wednesday afternoon, I'm a panelist on Andy Abramson's panel, "Are current wireline and wireless eco-systems still relevant?."

And then on Friday afternoon, I'm moderating a panel that I've organized on "Spectrum 2.0 - What's really happening?"

A year of travel history on Dopplr — Brough moves as fast as a chicken

In May of 2005 I joined the beta for Dopplr, a Web 2.0 travel site.  Of 2 or 3 travel sites I've played with, Dopplr is the one I've come to use.  It's the source of the travel schedule at the bottom of the right column in this blog and now it's the source of some interesting travel history as listed in my public profile.

But despite visiting all those cities and taking all those pictures, it appears my average velocity was fairly modest.
