Yes, it was fun. And no, I couldn't see you.

I had the privilege of being called on stage at Lotusphere 2012's opening general session by Alistair Rennie to represent the IBM Champions for Collaboration Solutions. He gave me 5 minutes notice and apparently didn't tell OGS staffers (except a few required to get the photo right) during rehearsals for fear it might get back to me...
So at the opening, Alistair asked me "Demo or No Demo?" to which I immediately said, "As big a fan as I am of panels..." then crowd-sourced the answer. And there were demos. And I was relieved that there weren't any panel discussions later. That would have been awkward.
Thanks to Tanya Delaney for the pics...I know there were some others from Mitch and Henry and I'm going to see if there's a good clip on the video replay.
Another check on the old bucket list!
