Wiscon in slightly more than 10 seconds

I don't have any intention of writing up complete panel reports for any of these, because I wasn't taking notes or anything. I'll limit it to my own thoughts, stuff I said or tried to say or would've said or wouldn't have said because of the "My birthday" syndrome*, stuff I thought was particularly interesting.

*It's dangerous to tell stories about birthdays, because suddenly you have a group of preschoolers who all want to chime in to say "My birthday is--" "My birthday is--" "My birthday is--" -- and really, no one is as interested as they themselves are. It's the same way with panels. Discretion is the better part of not annoying people, and that is precisely why we have Livejournals.

Wiscon part II

I need to state right up at the top that I'm sort of in a Wiscon frame of mind and, well, maybe a little more political than I am on a day-to-day basis. Just so you can be advised.
