And to all those who wrote to ask about it: it went very well indeed. Something like 50 people attended the “lab” that one of my colleagues and I put on (Advanced Discovery...). Afterwards several of the attendees told us that they had gotten good benefit from it, which made us all feel useful.
This year's conference had a new feature: customers could make appointments with individual developers through a web site. This worked out very well, as it gave us a way to find each other in the chaos of the conference. Every meeting I had with a customer was useful to both the customer and I.
Great show - but I'm glad it's over! Such things always tire me out, and so it was this time. This morning we slept in a little bit (didn't get up until 5 am!), and today we are working outside in the beautiful weather of our California mountains...
GRAMMAR IS IMPORTANT.
ReplyDelete"Every meeting I had with a customer was useful to both the customer and I" should be "and me."
So there.
