Is anyone here going to Hadoop world? I heard about it too late as I already had other travel plans but I'd be interested to hear first hand from anyone thats going.

yep, I'll be there, and I'll probably write it up.

Great could you shoot me a link when its up? (email in profile).

stephen's writeup is at http://redmonk.com/sogrady/2009/10/02/hadoopworld/.
