Amazing stuff. I don't know why, but, as I was walking home from the event, I felt this weird compulsion to take my headphones off and randomly put them on other people's heads. Yeah, I got punched in the face several times, but it was totally worth it.

Funny how the crowd went for the Interlude idea, and the judges for the Sunday Sky. Both of them were very cool nonetheless.

That's because Interlude had a great demo while Sunday Sky has a great business.

Speaking as one of the judges on the panel here are my two cents: We felt Sunday Sky has a well thought out business model (unique technology and clear target market), albeit some concerns about scalability. No doubt Interlude won on the cool-ness front. Though a clear business model was not apparant, all they would need is a single big hit to get off the ground!

As much as I loved the Interlude demo (and the Zionist in me rooted for Israel), I did not see a big idea... cool implementation but no new technology (or business). I liked (and voted for) the SundaySky demo since if it really is dynamic, on-the-fly and automated like the say it is, it really is a big idea and there's a very clear need. However personally I am not convinced that the audio narration is automated, it sounded like it was production-grade material, which beats the purpose.

Very well balanced... good prosentations.. interesting how most of the audience agreed with the panels choice of winner, they largely voted for the 'feel good' contender.

Vijay TinnanurRequestedWould be good to start early Have an informal coffee session before the presentation begins. Helps network more effectively as opposed to walking through aisles to meet people.
