The STM talks were recorded in multimedia, so soon you should be able to see what you missed.

I hear that the STM meeting was filled with much the same — a lot about Kindle, etc. At least I saw a different hotel for this year’s Tuesday before Frankfurt. But I agree with Ron, the meeting was a little underwhelming. I was expecting much more, something akin to the Web 2.0 Summit, which is awesome.

I was there as well instead of the 18 STM Tuesday’s I’ve attended. I was disapointed, and am curious about what might have gone on at STM. I attended Tools of Change in NYC this Spring and was impressed. Here in Frankfurt I was disapointed that it was mostly the SOSO from the Spring and agree w/ Kent that there was too much buzz about reading devices. I spent most of the meeting “reading my phone” as one speaker noted (my kindle ap on my iPhone Robert Parker’s newest Spencer novel) so the day wasn’t a complete waste.
