My timezone will keep me awake from 2am -> 9am to watch the live streams... which I probably will do ;)

Looking forward to watching the Meyers keynote and most of the other talks today.  How did the panel go yesterday?  Wish I could have watched it.

Will the videos be available afterwards at Andreis Youtube stream like last year?

+1

There's a big overlap between people who can't be at dconf and who also can't watch the live feed due to the time difference.

Like me, I tried my best to stay up after 1.30am to watch Andrei and Walter get peppered with questions, but since I left university, my ability to stay up (unaided by alcohol at least) is well gone.

I don't think it's certain yet, but here's what the MC James Pearce said in the chat yesterday:

"to those asking about videos, we'll have them all up on YouTube as promptly as possible (24-48 hours, hopefully)"

So if they can stick to that, there's no reason to livestream unless you really want to see it first. :)

Well, they clearly need to harden up! ;)
I was awake from 2am -> 10:30 am today... I'm currently smashing tea,
gearing up to go again... (I'm not sure I'll make it tonight, I don't
feel so great)

I think East-Coast-Australia<->West-Coast-US are the most incompatible timezones on earth! >_<

No, I can't see myself making it a second time... The afternoon
sessions are all super-interesting to me though! >_<
I might just have to watch the keynote and give up tonight.
