    From Iron Man to the Candy Bar - via the Lego pit...

    San Francisco is currently playing host to Oracle's OpenWorld conference.

    The event, which runs until Thursday, is a heady combination of hard technical information and geek playground.

    With around 40,000 attendees, OpenWorld takes over a big chunk of the downtown San Francisco and it's hard to escape the Oracle branding, seen here on the Moscone Centre.

    ...or on a bus. Even the homeless of San Francisco have got in on the act, adding references to the event to the signs they hold in a bid to up their donations from passsers-by.
