The key session of day 2 at MIX was without a doubt the Q&A between Guy Kawasaki and Steve Ballmer. You’ll have to watch it and see for yourself what you think of this, but I found it a quite unique experience (and I think many did with me). Can you think of any other CEO of a company such as Microsoft to do a keynote this way?
During the rest of the day, before and after the keynote, I focused mainly on sessions that talked about web2.0, social networking and mobile. Here are some videos worth watching of these sessions:
- Is web2.0 sustainable?
- Social Networks: where are they taking us?
- Web2.0 and beyond: what is the business reality?
Sessions I missed but are worth checking out as well on video are:
- The Story of the Ribbon
- Touch me: what’s next for interfaces
- Beneath the Surface
- Developing with the Windows Live Platform
There are a ton of sessions I still have to go through, all of them are up on http://sessions.visitmix.com/ for your viewing as well (requires Silverlight plugin).
That evening we joined the European MIX08 guests at the European party in Club 40/40 together with David Armano and his wife. The party was good fun and some magic but no pictures to share from this one… what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas I guess ;)

I liked that video so much that I wrote a post about it. It was a good conversation, glad you got the chance to see it live.
Thanks Valeria – I did see your post on it indeed, and think I saw it even made Techmeme if I’m not mistaken. Really glad to see you liked it by the way.
