How did the event go Nico, will there be video available for people who couldn't make it for many reasons?

Hi Brian and Nico:
Thank you for your interest in the event -- and your feedback.
I appreciate both the value that backstagers would add to this discussion, and
also the financial constraints under which many operate.
As you may be aware, BBC Future Media & Technology kindly underwrote and ran
the event last year, and we were able to waive any booking fee as a result. I
had originally hoped we could at least set aside a block of no cost tickets
this year, but unfortunately we couldn't carry this through due to lack of
sponsorship (recession, media sector crisis, blah, blah, blah).
That said, I am keen for backstagers to take part in the event and we have
created a £75 ticket just for people on this list. You can use this at the
Booking page:
http://www.mediafuturesconference.org/2009/Booking.html
or go directly to Eventbrite where the code will be pre-filled:

I hope this offer is sufficient to enable some list colleagues to attend and
look forward to you joining us on Friday.
Best regards
Nico Macdonald
