The Holiday Inn Select in downtown Montreal is a lot more stylish than the Holiday Inn Express in Harmarville -- but it does not offer in-room internet access. At all. Unless, I suppose, I had a dial-up provider and wanted to pay hotel room phone rates. Bah.

Which means I will have internet access during the day when I am wandering around CHI (and by definition, busy) but not at the hotel in the evenings.

I suppose there is a good chance that I will hook up with people here and be busy in the evenings, too, but yesterday evening was pretty darn dull.

Ah well. I am here, I am registered, I have had a cup of coffee (although I feel like I could do with one more), there is wireless access in the convention center, and the opening plenary will start in about 1/2 hour. So all is well in the world.

Hi there. Friend of Steph, here at CHI, staying in the same hotel even. And they do have free wireless access here in the Holiday Inn and I'm using it right this minute. The username is "hismontreal" and password is "welcome".

Anyway I'll have to keep an eye out and say hi in person if I see you!

Hi!

Hmm, I eventually found wireless, but not free. But someone told me there are two Holiday Inns, maybe you're at the other one... In any case, I am just glad to be online!

It would be great to hook up, maybe have lunch, or just chat between sessions :)
