Internet Hungary 2005

Tuesday, October 11th, 2005

It is always good to be invited to speak about Free Software, but some events come out better than others. Internet Hungary 2005 is one of those superb occasions for many reasons. First, it is very well organised, it has close to 1,000 participants and lots of journalists are covering it. One of the sponsors is the Hungarian edition of Playboy, and as a welcome present I have received a copy of the magazine … in Hungarian, so my wife won’t be able to read those famous articles 🙂 I will give my speech today, so I am enjoying the atmosphere around lake Balaton. The Hungarian language is quite different from any language I know, but the help of Istvan (an engineer that is translating for me) is making the experience very pleasent. I looks that tonight there will be a party: I wil report about it tomorrow 🙂 Here are some pictures of the event: http://www.mediahungaria.hu/internet-galeria
