Back from XML Prague

I'm back from this year's edition of XML Prague, my favourite markup geek event. As always, there's plenty to praise, from Jeni Tennison's opening keynote to Michael Sperberg-McQueen's closing one and pretty much everything in between, from the friendly organisers to MarkLogic's demojam event at the social dinner, the city itself, and, well, everyhting.

But what really gives me my yearly high is the fact that the event is always so much more than simply the sum of the above. We get to interact and learn from fellow markup enthusiasts, we meet with some of our favourite tool producers (who also are markup enthusiasts, btw) and other pros in the field, and we are once again refuelled and energised and inspired, and ready to do more when back home. Every year.

Don't you think that's amazing?
