I’ve recently returned from PDC with Peter Gaard and it was quite an experience. There are a number of new technologies coming down the line which will be described by many other people in more detail than I’d care to attempt. So I won’t. :)

One of the things which I really enjoyed was meeting so many of the personalities I’ve known about, followed, or exchanged a few emails with online. In approximate order of appearance I shook hands and said hi to Phil Haack, Scott Hanselman, Torkel Ödegaard, Don Box, Scott Guthrie, and Jeff Atwood. Very cool – even got a coding horror sticker from the man himself. I was sorry to see Hamilton Verissimo wasn’t in LA, but it was exciting to hear in an open spaces session some of the things that could be percolating for the future in the MEF team he’s joined.
