Over three *thousand*?

Did you have time to eat or sleep? (What am I saying, this is a Linux 
conference. So no sleep then, but hopefully at least you got a chance to 
talk to people in between wielding the camera!)

A Beijing moment: Our favorite editor at the BoF session

No, I didn't take the 3000 photos.  Perhaps I was unclear: I did not take that many photos
personally.  I think I had about 250 photos, but only 100 of which are taken by me personally.
The pictures before noon on the first day were taken by my colleague Steven Sun; and some of
the after-dinner shots were taken by Ollo.  :-)

Beijing LUG has assigned e.g. Ollo to be the photographer for the event, so he has taken a lot
of pictures (including multiple-shots which are 0.5 second apart to capture the best
expressions etc. I think), especially during speeches, round-table meeting, BoFs, etc.  So
yeah, it is either 3000 photos over the two-day event, or something like 15 GB of photos.
Ollo did find the time to eat and mingle, especially in the evening.  But yes, he has been
really great!  I think he covered just about everybody and everything.

Cheers,

Anthony
