Webjam 8 Photo Gallery By Renai LeMay, ZDNet.com.au September 26, 2008 URL: http://www.zdnet.com.au/insight/software/soa/Webjam-8-Photo-Gallery/0,139023769,339292281,00.htm
If there is a Web 2.0 version of heaven, it must be Webjam. Last night Sydney's Bar Broadway was packed to the nines as 18 presenters got three minutes each on stage at Webjam 8 to show off their hot Web work. We were there to see it all go down. We didn't get everyone's names last night, so please drop us a line or post a comment below this article if you know someone pictured, and we'll update the photo with their name.

These cool people got their table (right next to the bar) early and stayed there all night. Admittedly they didn't have the best view of the presenters. (Credit: Renai LeMay/ZDNet.com.au) 
Does this shirt come from London? (Credit: Renai LeMay/ZDNet.com.au)
