ive from TechCrunch 40 (blogging from blackberry)
About a 1000 people showed up at the conference, I wonder if they were expecting so many, because about 100 people are sitting on the ground (this includes me)
The first 5 startups have just presented:
Powerset.com, viewdle.com, cast.tv, Sylvia and …..
To me, viewdle and Sylvia were pretty impressive. Viewdle is a video search engine based on face recognition and Sylvia….. How do you explain that…. It is artificial intelligence and cool technology. Basically you say something to Sylvia and she will answer or do whatever you ask (well not anything…)
Now the panel is discussing the startups, questions about scaling, algorithms etc come up.
Om Malik agrees with me on Sylvia and viewdle (both will be bought soon).
Will be back with updates. You can follow me as well on twitter http://twitter.com/NextWeb
