It was a slow start this morning. The exposition room (room 210) was closed until 11h00 and the artist gallery until 14h00. We had some problems with the convention guide since there is some errors in it. Its normal and handouts are available on site to correct theses errors. You need to be vigilant for colored pages in the tray near the entrance for them. We arrived early so we had the time to check the voodoo board, the party list and recheck the panels we wanted to see. We have seen the following events and panels :
Human battleship
What is Consciousness? (Peter Watts is very good)
The Webcomics You Should be reading (huge list of must read)
C’est votre première Worldcon, non?
The opening ceremonies (Marc Garneau was here)
Talk between Cory Doctorow and Paul Krugman
The Elizabeth birthday party
Also there is parties, in this case the friendly Scandinavian party, the Japanese party, the Texas party (to host a worldcon in 2013) and Aberdeen party (to host another worldcon, I don’t remember which one). We’ll do a complete followup on the panels, parties and sightseeing tomorrow during the day. It’s too late now and we need to be ready for tomorrow.
