For those who didn’t know - last night was WebJam8.

300+ people crammed into Bar Broadway to hear 18 presenters (including me ) speak for 3 minutes each.

A massive well done to Lachlan Hardy, Lisa Herrod and the whole WebJam8 team for pulling the night together.  The night was action packed from the outset and didn’t really have a chance to get boring with all the activity. It’s a real example of how an event should be run and I’ll be lining up to make sure I get a spot in the next WebJam, whenever that might be.

The winner of the event, by popular vote, was Mister Speaker and his awesome TurnTubelist which allows you to mix (cross-fade etc.) YouTube music videos for hours of party fun.

Second and third place went to…um…the truth is that a that stage I’d had a few beers and don’t really remember. But congratulations to all the presenters for their entertaining presentations.

I’ve borrowed some photos below from JJ Halans and his WebJam8 Flickr photo set so you can see what the night was like. Sorry about not having my own photos, I forgot the camera in the rush to prepare a presentation. And in any case, JJ’s a much better photographer than me!

Make sure you check out the WebJam website for more details on prizewinner etc. later on (thanks to the excellent sponsors and the associated bar tab, I’m guessing Lachlan has a bit of a sore head today and will be updating the site in his own time)
