Jeffry Houser's 360|Flex DC Schedule
if you happen to be at 360|Flex, then this is where you can find me. I do plan to spend a lot of time at my booth playing with marshmallow guns. But, for the rest of the time, these are the sessions I plan to attend:
Sunday Hands On
In the morning I'll be in the AIR for Android session. In the afternoon, I'll probably "relax" and take some breather time.
Monday
I'll open the day at the keynote. Then, it's off to Jesse Warden's session on "How to Launch a Small Software Project." Jesse and I had very different experiences not being an employee of a corporation, and it's always great to learn from his experience and trade stories with him.
Then, I'll be giving my introductory Flex Component presentation, Flex Components for the Real World. If you want an introduction to components and how to use them in your application, then this is for you.
The last session of the day I'll be hanging at the Flextras booth, but I'll probably join Ben Stucki's general session about the art of computer science. I'm not sure what to expect there.
I think the Flexapalooza party swings in that evening and I'm supposed to be MCing and interviewing folks live between sets.
Tuesday
The day starts out with a general session on Mobile UX, so I'll probably be there and at the Flextras booth.
Then I'll be speaking about using Flex with iCalendar data. This is the most code heavy presentation I've ever created. The slide deck is only 10 slides (compared to my usual 50).
If it were up to me, I'd go to The invaluable Freelance Flasher presentation running opposite of mine, but unless you have a cloning option I can only be at one place at a time. The rest of the day I'll be focused on the Flextras booth and talking to folks.
Wednesday
Wednesday opens with an general session. I usually call this the "community keynote" because John (and in past year's Tom) get up to talk about the company, the conference, and people who helped stuff). They also have community members get up and demo projects and other stuff out there. Although, based on the scheudle they may have moved the "community member" stuff into the general lunch session.
Space permitting, I'll probably stop by Michael Labriola's preso on Flex 4 components. Michael is a dynamic speaker and often seems to know everything.
Then I'll stick around for David Ortinau's "How to Scale Your Freelance Biz and Maximize Your Profit." What can I say, I love the businessy stuff.
I'll probably spend the rest of the day at the Flextras booth, taking stuff down and depositing the remainder of the marshmallows in creative ways and taking down.
Tickets are still available, but at this point it is your last chance to get here.
