Instead of give a opinion to each session of VMworld Europe 2011, I prefer point the best moments (maybe unique… for sure “priceless”) of this event:

• VMworld Community TV: as already written, it was a great opportunity to make a day report (in native language) of the event. Thanks again to John Troyer for this opportunity.
• VMUG.IT vBeer: on Monday evening there was the Italian vBeer with around 40 people… But the best moment was see Re Ferrè and Perilli discuss about cloud and all around it.
  
• vExpert Meeting: on the late afternoon of Tuesday there was a meeting between some vExpert… a good opportunity to meet some of the 300 “selected people”.
• VCDX Breakfast: Wednesday has start with a breakfast with some VCDXs… from VMware there were on few of them (maybe due to sessions and labs)… but was a great moment to discuss about the program, how can be improved, how has improved from the past… and also about some possible news in the VCDX5.
• VMUG Member Lunch: still on Wednesday , there was a lunch for the VMUG board (and not only for the leaders)… another moment where was possible appreciate the “flat” approach in most discussions… everybody can tell his opinion and all are at same level (at least in this moment). Memorable was when Steve Herrod arrived for meet the people and sit for some time on each table.
• Paul Maritz Q&A: in the late afternoon of Wednesday, there was a Q&A session between the press (and some bloggers) and the CEO of VMware.
• Ducati: his part during the last general session was really great.

The VMworld TV is a video channel (on Youtube), similar to the VMware TV, where is possible see interview to some well-know people (but also “normal” people) or watch some reports or opinions on the days or the sessions at the VMworld. Is another form of communication that fit well and complement the other for for social media.

One interesting news of this year is the introduction of the VMware Community TV, that is a video channel (this time with livestream), that John Troyer gives to be used from the communities, VMUG, vExpert, … or just who ask to him (and of course has some interesting thing to share)… also in native languages.

The VMworld Europe 2011 will start today at Bella Center (at Copenhagen, like last year). For the VMware Partners it was already started yesterday.

In this days, probably I will not post on my blog, to be focused on the event. Of course I will tweet, so you can follow me on twitter (Segui @Andrea_Mauro). About Twitter remember also that:

• Main conference Twitter account to follow: @vmworld
• Main conference hashtag to use in all your tweets: #vmworld
• Other hashtags: #vTweetup, #vmworld3word

I would like to add some more notes  to my previous list for who will attend at VMworld Europe at Copenhagen:

• Sessions: unlike other people I’ve chose to do not publish sessions that I attend and to not promote any particular sessions. It’s too subjective the choice, and what I can like does not mean that must like also to other people… Also I think that who attend at VMworld is smart enough to choose his sessions :)
  But remember to share your option on each sessions (note that, for Twitter, there is a specific hashtag for each session).
• vBeers: see this post… and of course check on vbeers.org.
• Eat at VMworld: for people with special dietary requirements (submitted during registration) there is a specific area: Pre Ordered and Special Diets Catering Point (number 11) in Hall E.
  PS: but in most cases (for example for vegetarians and vegan) you can simple read the recipients and choose what to want (the lunch are served as self-service)….
• Eat in the city: Copenhagen is quite expensive, but you can find some good place where eat with a medium budget. IMHO the downtown area near the city hall could be good.
  There are also some kiosks that seem good and have also warm food.
• Transport: it’s confirmed that, as the last year, there is a free pass for local transport, included in the VMworld pass.
  The subway maybe is limited (only two lines), but is good enough to connect the Bella Center (there is a station with this name), with the airport and also with the downtown.
  Another option is use the train called ‘S-tog’ that connect the Bella Center (the station is more far than the subway station, but can be reach by a shot walk) with the central station.
  PS: there is also a free bus (only on Sun and and Mon) to connect from the airport to the Bella Center, just outside the airport.
• Currency: there is a local currency, but credit cards are accepted in most places… and sometime also Euro currency (I don’t know if kiosk accept also US Dollars).
