I need to install that threaded comments widget...) In order: Andreas - you didn't need to wait for an introduction! Antonio - men are allowed at Girl Geek dinners, but they have to come with a woman - see the rules on http://londongirlgeekdinner.pbwiki.com/ Smeerch - if I can get a photo of you, I'll add it to the page - got one? Samuele - lovely photos of the camera woman, but don't betray her trust by publishing the one she asked you not to. Otherwise every woman who ever sees you at an event in future will work hard to get a really bad picture of you to post on Flickr. ; ) Sean - next time, you can come along and choose in person! Palmasco - I noticed you because you remind me of an actor, but I'm not sure which one. My glasses are from Grotesque frames (Austrian company, but I bought them in Milan). I wear glasses every waking minute of my life, so it's one of the few fashion items I spend a lot of money on. Cristian - good idea. Several of us women who were there are keenly interested in meeting more of Italy's geek women, so we're working on it. Mr. Diego - Thanks! I didn't know I was a celebrity, either. Mostly I just talk a lot. (Damn! I need to install that threaded comments widget…)

Seems like I've been one of the few lucky ones who got the chance for a brief and impromptu chit chat with you: didn't know you were such a celebrity around here! ;-) Anyway it was very nice for me to meet you and I look forward to seeing you again (and thanks again for sending me the picture!). Cheers, Diego Deirdré, thumbs up to your post which is probably the most brilliant of the whole bunch out there (including mine in the bunch), I daresay.

Your words at the end of Vittorio Pasteris's talk seemed to point to a lack of comunication to foreign bloggers in Italy. Another point for future discussions. Trying to open our barcamps to foreign bloggers and hosts will be an hard match but, like said Lele Dainesi, we need to open to the outside and trying to partecipate to other barcamps outside italy as well. See you, next time.

I was sitting on the stairs outside when you were talking to Robin Good, noticed your eye glasses (very cool...), but never got a chance to meet you. Ok, hopefully that will be next time, ciao Ciao, I loved the post.
