SXSW - Fifth Day round up
Finally finished my last post on SXSW! took a while (and I kinda tailed off on the later days), but I'm glad I followed through with making notes and writing them up to help solidify thoughts in my mind, if nothing else... Day Five...
SXSW - Fourth Day round up
Unfortunately after waking up early, quickly showering, grabbing breakfast and thinking about a taxi we realised there weren't any good opening talks today. So instead we hung back at the hotel for a bit and went in later.
SXSW - Third Day round up
Breakfast was taken, taxi driver wasn't a conspiracy theorist... seemingly we've got this whole SXSW thing down now.
SXSW - Second Day round up
After hurriedly writing my round up of Day One we missed breakfast and grabbed a cab to rush in to our first talk of the day.
SXSW - Travel and First Day round up
After Car, Coach, Plane, Plane, Car we finally arrived in Austin (2 Hours ahead of Marcus and Paul - clearly we're connecting flight geniuses). A quick jaunt to the convention center to collect passes before the melee that was collecting them on Friday, followed by an excellent (if not slightly cliche texan?) chilli cheese burger meal with Paul and a multitude of people I've never met before (including Aral Balkan who did an excellent talk on Friday afternoon) pretty much rounded up the first day.
Sitewatcher AIR App
Blog post now up over at Boagworld discussing our first foray in to the world of Adobe AIR. Would be great to hear any feedback, both on the app and the article itself. So please do let me know your thoughts.
Headscapers
You may or may not know that I recently created an aggregated feed for people from #theBarn. This can be seen over at cargowire.net/theBarn. If you are of the persuasion you can also consume this in a variety of formats. These include HTML, XML and RSS (as does most of this site in fact). I may add more in the future... but let's be honest it's probably only me viewing it as HTML at the moment anyway. Let alone anything or anyone else.
Seasonal Branding?
Ok, I admit it this is a repost of something I commented on about 2 years ago on my old blog, but still...
Developer Day 7
Back from Developer Day! and once again inspired to code. It's a great day for getting you excited about technology and web development even if you don't necessarily bring away specific techniques that you want to try out. So here's a breakdown of the talks I went to:
