                              You know you're a geek when... You buy a new TV and open it up to look inside before you turn it on.

                                      I don't think they're up yet (though slides from some sessions are[^]) In the meantime however there are summaries of all of the sessions here[^] to give you a flavour of what the conference is all about.
