It’s great to see that W3C are hosting their WWW06 conference in the UK this year, Edinburgh specifically.
I’m chairing the two sessions on the Impact of the Web on Media & Entertainment. With an interesting collection of speakers put together by Daniel Harris of Kendra, the discussion after the presentations should be good.

I was in Athens for the weekend, thanks to the IFA. They treated us very well by putting us in the lovely Hotel Nafsika at Astir Palace on the Saronic Gulf.
