And now for some name-dropping

Well, if the trip to Seattle goes ahead, then Robert Scoble will arrange a geek dinner! We exchanged a few emails today - he told me about a Daniel's Broiler in downtown Seattle, and stuff like that.

Unfortunately I won't be able to catch up with Ron Jacobs while I'm over there. I listen to his ARCast podcast regularly, but he'll be in the UK while I'm in Seattle. And even if I get to come home via London, I have more important people to catch up with than Ron there. Family, not just Arsenal players.
