It's CeBIT time again ... Day 2
Incredible, but true...yesterday evening we've succeeded in walking through ALL CeBIT halls. If you've ever been there, you know that this means something. Somebody told us, that taking the whole 9 yards means walking almost 10 kilometers. Ok, in the evening without the crowded passages its much easier (except the crowded parties of course). And there the CeBIT often offers Live music of exceptional quality.
But before that you stand there at your booth from 9 am to 6 pm, talking to peoples, explaining and demonstrating your project, making new contacts, taking and planning appointments...
Saturday and Sunday are the days of the so called 'Beutelratten' (meaning non-business visitors that are hunting all possible giveaways and gadgets, gathering all in free giveaway bags that they have to carry around everywhere and everytime). But, anyway besides of those, today we also had some rather interesting business visitors.
Tomorrow on Sunday will be my last CeBIT day...and I must say it's okay. Another three days would be really too stressful...
