Much of last years wikimedia conference in India was without WiFi, we had to talk to each other instead. I think the lack of WiFi made it a better conference and would suggest for future events that we pick one or two lounge areas where we don't even try to get WiFi working.

Not going to happen, but nice to think about ;-)

Just like there's an adult swim at pools, an "Analog Day" at Wikimania would be fascinating. 

Actually, the final beach party last year in Israel was very water-oriented, food-laden, and analog. :)
