You know this fantasy conference has not been as good as the Sells XML Conference. I hope he has another one of those soon; I'll sign up ASAP this time.
Seriously it appears that Darrell is having a good time. I still wish I was there (basically nothing cool or funny to say today.. I'm working! Dang it! Besides like Brendan, Sahil, and Mike Gunderloy -- my new boss for the writing gig, I'm too cheap to go to an expensive conference).
Maybe my good buddies Dave and Eric will put on the Ohio Dev Con! We could grill at Dave's house and have all night Geek talks...
Actually something I have thought about is sort of a reverse conference. I wonder do people get together to do a marathon development session (5-10 people)... I mean spec something out ahead of time and get together for a weekend (at the same place) and see if you could build it. Maybe this could be a competition... people get together around the country/world in various places and try to build the same app in a weekend and see whose is better/more feature rich...
Does this happen... it seems like a fun idea...
