Good day at the Festival

There was lots of interest in the digistories table in the Marketplace which was ideally placed outside the main theatre entrance.  I’ve tweeted from most of the sessions which gives you a flavour of how the day has gone, but now it’s time to have a drink and relax for the evening. I’ll update the blog with my observations and review on the train home tomorrow.
