Title: Best way to follow Bitcoin2012 from home?
Post by: capsqrl on September 14, 2012, 05:01:36 PM
I'm stuck at home this weekend, and home is not London.

What are the best ways to follow the talks from home? Will there be streams? At least an audiofeed? Liveblogs? 24-hour CNN coverage? Anything?

How about post factum; will recordings of the talks be published?

Edit: And if not, the organizers should keep in mind that I would gladly pay good bitcoins to watch live. So shut up and take my money.

This happened last conference too.  No one was willing to live blog or give much information about the conference at all.

If I can go next year, I guarantee I'll live blog every presentation I attend, with text and pictures.

Not sure how much live blogging I'll be doing but just in case, I've opened a Bitcoin blog at http://bitteeinbitcoin.blogspot.co.uk/

We'll see how it goes but I'll try to post some regular-ISH updates! (No guarantees of quality, though, unless someone wants to pay me to blog, and I'm not asking for that - I just want to give a semi-decent report from a n00b's perspective.)

At the lectures in the "Satoshi" conference room right now, writing a few little summarized ramblings on my Puter, will try to upload something periodically. I'm trying! :)

They are busy taking pictures of women: http://twitter.com/BludRIN/status/246916037902213120/photo/1

Also, are those bouncers to keep people IN in the background?

I am following by going to a local pub and getting the fish and chips.  It is a partial British experience.

The official twitter account (https://twitter.com/BitcoinConf2012) seems to have kept good pace right up until the conference was about to start. I understand that they're busy running the conference but that's still a bit disappointing.
