Yay, back on the Wi-Fi grid. Saddened to report that the Omni lobby no longer has free Wi-Fi , making the former blogger’s paradise a wasteland, albeit one with much better food.

After a decade of vowing never to return on a Tuesday, we now find it the most pleasant and relaxing method of travel yet. No staying up all night for a morning flight and arriving bleary-eyed and already behind the eightball. Instead we enjoyed an empty airport (both ways), a peaceful arrival, a pleasant dinner, and then an awesome kickoff cocktail party at Ben Templesmith’s. Meanwhile, the streets are rapidly filling with badges, Star Trek-themed T-shirts, and shortboxes.

No real news that we’ve heard yet. The biggest buzz was about the Image announcement yesterday, but speculation over its effects remains muted.
