And the winners are... Not Lafinboy 'cos Kate Carruthers selected you for a discount ticket already. So, choosing between the others for reasons which are vague, semi-random and not to be discussed in any way so shut up and deal with it... franksting and Barry Saunders. Gentlemen, I'll email you shortly with the details. Thank you for playing.

I’ll close entries at 9am this morning — that’s in just under 90 minutes. However my friend and co-panellist Kate Carruthers is running the same contest. Be quick.

If there’s a recovery party, I’ll be there. Other than, I don’t give a shit.

OK, I’ll throw my hat in the ring.

I’ve been to CeBIT a couple of times, as an attendee and an exhibitor, but have been disappointed with the content/experience each time. This year is shaping up to be something quite different, with the whole Web stream taking a much more prominent place, so my interest in the event has been raised again (but not enough to pay THAT much for!).

I have spoken/interacted with several of the panelists via Twitter, uStream, etc, and would like to have the opportunity to meet them IRL, and with the possibility of me not being drunk!

I look forward to your acceptance of my nomination and meeting you in person.

I should also record that Barry Saunders has sucked up to me on Facebook so his entry is in too. Any more?

I didn’t get any stimulus package, and it’s not as if my employer forks out cash on important things like CeBIT!

Well my case is simple…. Aunty has such a limited budget at the moment (and by moment I mean since little johnny came into power)… that conferences and travel for them is so low on the agenda.. that well.. I just plain wouldn’t get to go to this… …..

And to be honest I really would like to go…
