Le Web 3 - day one
It started monday morning at 3i where I got the chance to make a dry run of the WaveStorm/RiiMOTE presentation I did today on stage. Thanks Alex for your cool feedback and to the other contestants along with cathy that were doing crazy stuff like Seesmic videos in the waiting room.
Yesterday’s speaker’s party was a really cool warm up to get in the mood for this edition of Le Web 3. I got the chance to meet with Om Malik (yeah *the* Om Malik from GigaOM) and Robert Scoble (and baby Scoble, 3 month and so cute) two of the most influential US bloggers… that LeWeb3 edition is really starting well ;).
The first day itself was really tiresome, the Les Dock stage is huge… especially as it is separated on 3 different locations (my feet hurt like at CES…). 2000 people in that vast area make it hard to find each other, but I guess I managed to catch up with everyone.
I only attended three panels (I promise, I’ll watch the other ones onlien when they’re available), first one was with Philippe Starck, awesome presentation with a sooo cute French accent, great vision, great man, great life-achievements… this guy is really amazing.
Second one was about garagegeeks that made a live demo of a humanoid playing guitar Hero… awesome ! Finally I saw Joi Ito present Creative Commons and demonstrating content creation based on World of Warcraft. That just pushed me in downloading the 3.5G of WoW and trying that out by myself.
I also did my presentation on the Startup competition - that went pretty well, 7 minutes is a short time to go through a full-scale project but anyway I hope the judge got a good picture about what we’re trying to achieve at WaveStorm ! I hope I can get one of the prizes tomorrow 
Anyway Geraldine, Cathy and Loïc did an awesome job in organizing this edition… only as last time WiFi by Swisscom was sucking biiiiig time
