So, day three started early for us. Like yesterday, the team was first on the schedule to present. Which ment 8am. Alarm clocks, phones and even the TV were set early to assure the needed, early awake. I personally still had some troubles getting up, but fortunately the team did not and Michiel managed to get me out of bed.
We met in the hall at half past seven, went for a quick breakfast and afterwards went straight to the judging rooms. Setup was swift, for a minor error of Nick, who spilled his water on the table (I was just quick enough to pick up his laptop to prevent damage!). But this was not a great problem and was solved quickly. I think the judges were impressed with the concept and asked the right questions! We actually had foreseen 3 of them and could back up the story with some extra slides and a small demo. So to round up, a great kick-off of day 2!
[update @1400]
Still waiting for the ‘booth round’. Which is set to kick off at 1530. In the meanwhile the team is at the booth speaking to press from around the world. Yesterday Mexican television, today Brazil, Japan, South America in general, and some other countries. They all seemed impressed, which I think is good. I’ve uploaded some more pictures, check them out at the album. Next update will be after the semi final announcements which are scheduled at 1630, keep those fingers crossed!
