Madrid

Posted by: John In: Travel

Holy cow, Madrid is, so far, unlike any place that I’ve been. We got to our hotel after midnight last night, and the area outside our hotel was filled with people, and lit up like it was the middle of the day. People were up through the whole night — I had to crash around 2a, since I had a 9a meeting this morning. We’re only here for about 20 hours this time, but I’m going to make a point to come back before too long….

[As an aside, I'm really interested in BrightKite and their iPhone application. Not sure it will stick with me, since without background apps on the iPhone you have to active the app to update your location, but it's a really interesting development. Worth watching.]
