Well, Kfest is mostly ended but the moving out.  IT WENT TOO FAST.

As usual I did not get even half the things I hoped to do.  There was
a little party Taboo and Apples to Apples just before midnight.

Several neat new utilities were introduced this morning.  I'll let
others tell more about them.

KC Masterpiece was very good tonight.

I did a few 3 minute videos of people doing presentations.  Check them
out at:  http://video.xanga.com/brb4311

Pictures are up to 43 at: http://photo.xanga.com/brb4311/albums/bb35d534273832

There are plenty of other blogs in other places.  Check a2central.
Ken Gagne has posted his blogging site.

Tony Diaz announced there definitely will be a Kfest 2008.  Everyone
should plan now to take off the last of July, 2008 and bring a
friend.  Bring a roommate.
