The NY Times is using the same tools I am to cover the DNC They have a Flickr stream. And a Twitter feed.. 5:30PM working inside the Pepsi Center Uploaded a lot more pictures, and am about to upload a 2 minute tour of the inside of the DNC. It's super hot outside, but the press puts on a good show. Found free workspace, fast Ethernet and power. Happy blogger. Now I'm looking for Google's tent, and the unassigned media tent (which is what bloggers are, officially, at the DNC). Lots of the landscape is familiar, and it was true I'd need to re-experience it to recall the memories. The photos from this part of the day's exploration begin here. Inside the Pepsi Center at 2PM About to upload some pics and videos. I'm posting regular updates to Twitter. When I set out from Berkeley on Tues morning, this was my destination,. A dramatic entrance (movie) into the Pepsi Center, where the Democratic Convention opens tomorrow. Lots more pictures following. I'm over the first hurdle getting set up for the Democratic Convention. I've got my press credential for tomorrow. Later today I'm heading over to the Pepsi Center to take some pictures. If you're here and reading this let's get together to talk politics and tech. Some pics I took this morning... Security details everywhere, also lots of volunteers offering help. Everyone's friendly and upbeat. Obama-branded merchandise is going fast. This guy looks like Obama, but... I'm in the hotel where all reporters get their credentials. Spotted one or two famous faces. Got my s.w.a.g. bag. |
