The twisty-turniness of events, or in fact the way two things with apparently no causal connection can conspire, from six months out, to exactly collide at the worst possible time, means that I'm not delivering my session at ETCon . I think I can safely say that no gig in my professional life (and it's been a bit of a rollercoaster) made me more excited, and so at this point, more disappointed. Gutted, as they used to say round these parts.

The good news for attendees is that Tom Coates is delivering it instead, and it's going to rock.

and I suppose it just means I'll have to think of something new for next year.

There's simply not much I can say at the moment, and the masterwork on Content Non-management Systems I've been preparing doesn't seem very compelling right now.
