I was pleased with how it went too. Nice to see so many people there,
including some new faces.

Sounds good to me. I've registered there and will see what I can
contribute. This works nicely with the Firefox GeoURL extension that
takes the coordinates stored in a page and pulls up various sorts of map:

There's also Greasemap to embed a Google map on a page:

Perhaps we could schedule an IRC chat for people to discuss what talks
we could have in the coming months. Heaven forbid that we should get
double-booked ;)
