It's my first time in Venice, and today was our first day. Beautiful city, amazing crowds, carnivale is fantastic, it's a circus!

It rained the whole day, but I already find myself falling in love with the city. I'll be here most of the week, then heading to Udine for the Next Web conference, thanks to an invite from my old friend Paolo Valdemarin. I'll post pictures as I have time...

For those of you just dying for a picture, I'll be adding photos to my Flickr set throughout the week. For some instant gratification, here's some Carnivale revellers heading into San Marco square, one of the biggest squares in Venice:
