I’ve found some tips on how to start a successful liveblogging session and tested a cool platform: http://www.coveritlive.com.

You know, liveblogging at a conference is very important for people who can’t attend it. It helps, among with pics and videos, to smell the great atmosphere you can breathe in a community event.

As you probably already know, yesterday the GA version of MySQL™ 5.1 has been released :)

To celebrate this great event, I have organized a little event with some of my friends @ Trieste University, Italy.

Possibility no. two vanished cause one of them went away to U.S. for a short period @ Standford University and the others are very busy during this week.

Moral:

• devote yourself to Euroregions and EU Political Integration as much as you can, :-0 …
