Took a couple of RAZR phone pix at the opening reception, which was well attended. Total count appears to be about 650 from the attendee list; the number of press and bloggers, about 75. (The first photo isn’t so great — hey, it was dark by then, as the reception was about to end.)
Taken earlier (when it was still light), here’s Steve Larsen, CEO of Krugle (left), and Mitch Musgrove, VP sales and bus dev at SimpleFeed.
What are some of the interesting things coming at Demo from an IT standpoint? I couldn’t say it better than this piece on Information Week from late yesterday.
Met some interesting folks at the reception, including Bill Tam, the CEO of EQO, based in Vancouver. They’re doing nothing less than bringing Skype to your mobile phone — pretty cool! Also chatted with two guys from Riya,, Azhar Khan, the VP of engineering, and Danny Yang, senior researcher. Their technology lets you do photo search by face recognition — how ’bout that? And it also searches the text within the photo file. Riya will be free when it’s available in a few weeks.
