(Sorry so stale:  had no connectivity in the past few hours). Well, just like Wednesday morning’s sessions, it was hard to find much to write about in the final afternoon of Where 2.0.  There was one standout presentation by Chris Spurgen of the Walt Disney Company.  He gave a really rousing and cheeky review of the best geo-hacks in history.  Essentially, it was a very entertaining look at Mercator (the man) and his genius of projection as well as the history of the biggest hack in geography…the ability to calculate longitude while sailing.  It was awesome and Chris really had the audience very engaged.  I wish I could say the same for the final speakers of the day but I can’t.
