Picnic 10 is over – and what a nice conference it was! Only one of us Bubblers could make it to Amsterdam, and only for two half-days. With so little crew, I focused on covering the event live through Twitter.

First of all, a big thanks and props to the Picnic team, who put together a smooth, inspiring and extremely well-organized event!

Obviously, Picnic deserves more than that. So let me share a few impressions (all photos by Picnic).

It’s time to share a few impressions.

Like Tom Coates said: “I’m in a Yurt! I’m in a Yurt! Put your hands up now cos I’m in a ****ing Yurt!”

See the rest after the jump!

Attending a conference for the first time is always like joining a new family. They are really close and you feel like an outsider. It depends on the spirit of the conference and your own motivation, if you can get in easily or if you remain on the outside. After 1,5 days of Lift10, I think I can share some (very subjective) observations of the Lift family. But remember, this is Berlinblase, don’t take it too seriously…

In good ol’ Berlinblase-style, here’s the video walk through the CICG where Lift is gathering.

All the main sessions will be livestreamed from 13:00 on Wednesday (5th). Here are more ways to follow the conference:

• I will be twittering at @berlinblase
• Follow the stream of tweets with the official hashtag #lift10
• Anna Jobin has created a neat Twitter list of most of the twittering participants.
• Stephanie Booth is doing an amazing job liveblogging most of the sessions at Climb to the Stars

Any suggestions for other ways to follow Lift10?

I’m about to head out to make the six hour train travel from Frankfurt to Geneva for the Lift Conference 2010. I’m very thankful to the organizers for giving Berlinblase a press pass and will do my best to collect as much impressions and inspirations as possible.
