looking forward to meeting fellow geeks. We're bringing our Flex app if anyone would like a look. It's aimed at the fitness market and has AI built-in to give dynamic training programmes, link to a Flex shopping cart etc. Critical evaluation & feedback would be most welcome. Worst critics have to buy us a coffee ...

Mike JonesFlex London User Group Manager, Assistant OrganizerThe bar should have been closed during the sessions as there were a lot of people talking while Serge and James were presenting.

-
Philip BediIt was good but if you can handout some info related to speaker and what they suggest during meeting should be in that handout paper.
-
-
George Cook+1 guestthanks for putting it on. would've been much better if you have either: a bar and no presentation a presentation and no bar.

Ignacio+1 guestJust a small critic about having the presentations and the bar at the same place at the same time, it made it hard to understand the speakers.
-
Tero PikalaCould have started 7pm instead of 7:20... Adobe guys should have focused on Flex3/AIR more Good event anyway!
-
creacoggreat event - great speakers - somewhat spoilt by the continuous nattering of the folks in the bar area at the back - really they should have been told to shut-up or leave - since they were clearly not interested in listening to the presentations - having the mics up loud is not a compensation. I'm sure part of the purpose of the event was to promote mingling - but surely not during the presentations ??? Otherwise really good
-
Jameelur RahmaanLate start which meant I had to leave before the end but otherwise interesting. Quite motivating too.
-
edPresentations were good, but by the end the noise from the bar made listening to the speakers nigh on impossible.
-
ChrisI may be biased as I'm more interested in the database interaction side of things but I thought the second talk was far more informative and useful. My only gripe about the evening was that it was difficult to hear the speakers with the noisy bar right behind us.
-
Alan GreasleyGood mix of people - great to meet the Adobe guys and fellow Flex enthusiasts - good buzz.
-
Andrew ClelandToo many people standing at the back talking loudly whilst speakers were giving presentations.
There should be no free drinks until after the speakers have finished.
How many people only turned up because of the free beer?
