To illustrate the concept of money as a metric, I used the ever awesome Haribo Saft Goldbären they have on sale here in Mediapark 7 at SIGINT.

The first of my three talks here managed to snag a near capacity crowd, more likely due to the timing of the talk right after dinner on Friday night.  The crowd seemed relatively sedate until midway through, when a great series of questions came up.  Based on the interview I did with German Public Radio and comments from those who approached me since, it seems the topic really resonated with the attendees  here.

Seeing Johannes sing corporate anthems and Astera and George talk about robot uprisings was also really cool.  Jens gave a great Day 1 keynote…or so say the German speakers I begged an aftermath from.  It was also great spending time chilling with Jon and Ivory.

The slides from the talk and more about cloud banking are now posted over at my cloud banking page.  Thanks to jmtosses and function for the pictures!
