Conventions #1
Have you been to any conventions?

I've been to:
  • Megacon (multi-genre convention in FL)
  • Defcon (security convention in NV)
  • Blizzcon (Blizzard convention in CA)

Notable moments? Positive experiences?

RE: Coventions #2
Been to local conferences. specific to my area so im not going to elaborate. but it was interesting. At one I spent several hours learning how to lock pick. I now know how to get out of double locking handcuffs. even behind my back while wearing them. though it's not an instant trick like you see in the movies lol. or at least im not at that level. but ya. workshops. talks, the usual.

I've been to:

- Comic con twice. Second time was especially awesome as this American corset company was over and it was all steampunk and incredible and high quality. I got to try some on and absolutely loved it. If only I had 180GBP to spend on one...

- ExCel (London) put on a house of the future show which was pretty awesome. Saw a demonstration of a multitude of new home gadgets and what not. It was kinda cool.

I haven't been the most recent years. When I went, it was in London (I'm British m8) and it was awesome. I managed to get loads of pocky really cheap and promarkers cheap too (which shocked me as everything is normally really expensive). There were so many people there and one year, all of the security blokes were dressed as Storm Troopers. My friend asked for a hug from one of them and was rejected - hilarious.

Blizzcon was great. They served beer just about everywhere. I was at the Hearthstone Tavern a large portion of the event. Got to play/talk with a couple of Blizzard developers. Priceless experience. Linkin Park is bad, though.
