During the TSX days in Nice I have created some small movies with my Sony DVD92E and recoded the VOB files with Nero Recode. After the recoding I edited the MP4 files with Windows Movie maker 6 and placed the movies on YouTube. When you are interested in the opening speech from Richard Garthagen or you just want to get an impression about the TSX in Nice please visit the following address.

Just after the SDK Programming Perl toolkit lab I had the opportunity to conduct an interview with Jeremy van Doorn.  He works for VMware since 2004 as a Senior Systems Engineer. His work is to present VMware solutions to customers and speak on seminars.  Besides that he talks, on a daily basis with the costumers about where they can use the VMware products. In the past Jeremy was a security engineer at BT (Syntergra) where he had an advising role regarding secure WAN links.

The first official day at the TSX in Nice was a busy day. You had to find the most interesting session before the room filled up and your had to get your drinks in time ;-). Besides that I got the opportunity to interview a lot of interesting people. The opening speech went great and I made a little video of the presentation from Richard Garthagen. Tomorrow I am going to take the Perl lab. I will keep you posted. The photo is taken by Viktor van den Berg, on his website you can find more TSX photo's.
