title Droidcon 2016, Islington, London - 27th October 2016 intro Nosher's at the total nerd-fest that is Android Developer Conference "Droidcon 2016", held just off trendy Upper Street in Islington, London. It's a brutal 5.00am start though, to get there in time for a 9.15am registration, and it's a salutory reminder that doing rush hour on poxy commuter trains with no seats and a million passengers is an unpleasant experience. imgc4481 Retro hardware shop on Upper Street imgc4482 Nerd-fest central - the Business Design Centre imgc4483 The morning starts off well with a massive queue imgc4484 The queue gets nearer the entrance imgc4486 The main arena has a building conference going on imgc4487 Down in the Droidcon area imgc4488 A spot of VR goes on imgc4491 There's an Android-ey presentation imgc4492 There's a break for a drink and some fruit imgc4494 Hanging around one of the "show booths" imgc4497 Crowds of nerds imgc4500 Virtual reality is a popular thing this year imgc4501 All six women attending are clustered together imgc4506 A presentation about Android testing imgc4509 One of the uber-trendy shops around the hall imgc4512 A security guard at the end of the line imgc4515 Google's Chet Haase does a presentation imgc4519 The main exhibition hall at night imgc4520 A party bus appears to take people away imgc4522 Upper Street, Islington imgc4523 The Screen on the Green imgc4526 Tottenham Hale Underground imgc4527 Underground tubes imgc4528 The Screen on the Green in daylight imgc4530 A derelict-looking "Proper Hamburgers" imgc4531 Nice stained glass imgc4541 A curious cow imgc4542 Plants grow out of a building roof imgc4543 A view from a window imgc4548 More conference action imgc4558 Another session with Virtual Reality imgc4564 Upper Street in the evening imgc4566 A flower shop imgc4567 Interesting building on a street corner imgc4568 More illuminated hardware shops imgc4569 Islington Town Hall imgc4570 Upper Street Hardware again
