Mediumgeek is going extra geek soon. Mediumgeek is flying to Finland attending her first demoparty this week! Assembly '06 to be more specific.



For the ones of you that don't know what a demoparty is, it is gathering of people that come and produce non-interactive audio-visual presentations, which are run real-time on a computer. Sounds a little complicated doesn't it? To put it simpler, it is a party where people do cool stuff with graphics on their computers. In addition, they play games, chat and generally just have fun.


Opera is sponsoring the event and will be setting up a stand there where you can try some of our products, ask questions, and be recruited by us. Opera is also organizing the Widget competition and sponsoring the Browser Compo.



While I am slightly worried that I will feel a bit out of place (that my geek genes don't quite measure up), I am just happy to try something new, travel to Finland, and I really hope I will get the chance of having a beer with my friend Daniel! If there is anyone else there that I know please give me a shout or come and visit our stand at the party!



The group of people going has started a Assembly blog on my.opera.com and I will probably be blogging from there during the event.
