I thought they said they would have available wi-fi for us? Another thing that would have been good to have at Podcamp DC was that they had wi-fi available for everyone.

There were some good sessions but unfortunately I didn't want to miss the one I was in and reluctantly had to resign myself to not going to any of the other ones.
