How did you feel the SG Foo went aside from the gastrointestinal issues?

It was actually really really focused on one or two significant areas - areas that I'm familiar with and working around but not really qualified to comment upon. Lots of OAuth stuff which we're using for Fire Eagle and a bunch of Open ID stuff, which I'm sort of interested in theoretically more than actually.

The portable social graph stuff was relatively predictable, but fairly interesting. The best stuff for me was the people performing analysis on huge datasets of social graph data.

Bluntly, I think a whole bunch of people pushed the current state of the art in this area forward a chunk and lots of cool things will come out of it. I'm just not sure I was one of them :D Still, Fire Eagle went down okay, so that was quite cool.

Yeah, I blame the Taco Bell... Fire Eagle is pretty exciting though.

Actually I'd been feeling quite rough before the Taco Bell earlier in the day. I rather thought it helped! Thanks for the nice words on Fire Eagle. Difficult to tell from my perspective whether it's a winner or not, but it feels sort of good.

I had similar problems with gut food in California... I fixed it trying to cook food myself or going to better restaurants. Cheap restaurants in the bay area really killed me. I also went to see an acupuncturist ...
