[…] Well it’s been a busy and crazy week but I’ve finally got some time to tell you all about my 3 Days in London attending The mashup* demo event and of course the awesome Future of Web Apps Conference and Expo which included the Live Filming of Episode 118 of Diggnation and the Carsonified Relaunch Party!

FOWA was very cool, although I am a little sad now as I couldn’t make it until the 2nd day, from the sounds of it I missed out on a lot! I will make sure I attend all of it next time.

Guys, thanks for all of your kind words - it makes all of the work that goes into the event worthwhile and I can’t tell you how good it was to catch up with you in person!!

Hopefully the next FOWA will be Miami in February and then back to London again for the same week in October next year - bring it on :)

Ryan, I just want to say thanks again for such a great event. It was awesome. diggnation was amazing and it really was like a rock concert. Unbelievable! I had the best time the past few days and met so many great people. Thank you for that.

And major congratulations on relaunching as Carsonified. I love it! The best to you and all your wonderful employees (shout outs to Mel and Lisa!)

Loving the new site guys. You did a great job on it. I am going to have make over to your side the world for one of your conferences one of these days. The good news is I will be able to make it too SXSW this year. Hope to see you all there!

A tip of my (imaginary) hat to Ryan and the team. You guys have really pulled off a great conference, and left vast numbers of people with a good, positive buzz about web apps, startups and growing communities.

I think we all underestimated how popular the entrepreneur track was going to be, but aside from that, what a great event.

Great thinking to invite the Diggnation guys, I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time and, having met Alex & the Totally Rad Show guys, they’re top blokes!

See you in a month at Future of Mobile!

Thanks for all your comments, everyone! We’re so chuffed that you guys had a great time - we did too!

@GC: Thanks for taking the time to point out the errors. However, we’re aware of all of them and I’m in the process of fixing one at a time, hence the “please bear with us while we iron out the creases and apply the final layer of polish” message. We’d never intentionally alientate any of our audience; however, as IE users make up a relatively small percentage of our userbase, we decided to fix as we go.
