These days I came back from Amsterdam PICNIC-2007 Cross media week. That is one of the biggest annual events devoted to new media, creativity and innovation.
Together with Oleksandr Demchenko we were invited by European Journalism Center to participate in European Bloggers Confernce with "East meets West" concept. Bloggers and New media representatives from Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Belorus, Russia, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan, Macedonia, Italy, the UK and other European countries enjoyed a 2-day course of non-stop communication and ideas sharing.

I strongly recommend to visit next year PICNIC-08, since the atmosphere of this unprecedented festival is marvelous. Here is the desription of PICNIC from official web-site: "PICNIC is not only a conference. PICNIC is a festival. A week of fresh creative & innovative ideas. One of the world’s leading events where creative minds from the world of media, entertainment, science and the arts convene".
Nice people on the streets, cosy cafes, beautiful channels, bridges and benches. Amsterdam sets You into a very special kind of mood. More pictures from PICNIC-07 can be found here.
Well, now I'm back to Ukraine excited about Highway web-projects and looking forward to Blogcamp, which takes place on 13-14 October in Kyiv.
These weekend we had elections in Ukraine and today Highway server can hardly manage lots of visitors. I think, we'll probably set a record today, if server survives.
