It's not the fact that most of the paper comes from feeds that pisses me off, it's the fact that the articles that are written by smh journalist are constantly wrong.
How hard is it to count ?

Okay the UK keynote got Q & A - and it was really good.

Watching the London keynote and it reminded me of a thought I'd have earlier in the day - Google has become Sun, open sourcing | releasing technologies - for the same reason, just with a broader audiences. Possibly it is the son(sorry bad pun)| daughter of Sun - Sun build and delivered TCP/IP* and other lower parts of the stack - Google has built on them and built | building a new layer of tools and building blocks.

Overall very good, if not bloody cold - believe it or not a converted locomotive building is piss cold in the winter. Anyway it did mean it was hard to fall asleep.
I'll look through my notes properly tomorrow and add some more comments.
One thing that I didn't know and looks rather cool is Google gadgets are meant to *just* work as Dashboard Widgets.

I'm somewhat interested to see if I can get gears to let dashboard widgets work off line, I can think of a few apps /widgets that would benefit.

Can you have an umbrella mapplet that will let you have several nested mapplets ( google thinks so ).

What about dynamically creating mapplets, I suppose this doesn't make sense.

Gears looks like a great idea, already think I can see several uses for it. However I need to read how the security works, how do you stop other sites accessing your data ? Also how do you stop malice sites filling the local store with rubbish data, are there size limits imposed on a url or can I download an HD DVD as required offline content.

Things to think about.

This is one of the most usable sites I've been to in a long time - not the nicest site to have to visit - but you can't win them all.
