WWDC Day 2

6:10 - Ducked out a few minutes early so I could make the last bus
5:00 - Designing Applications with Interface Builder
3:30 - Understanding iPhone Table Views
2:00 - Understanding iPhone View Controllers
12:30 - Lunch
12:18 - Developers Conferences are the only events on the planet where the lines for the Men's restrooms are longer than the lines for the Women's restrooms!
11:50 - Bean bag chairs?  This is a different kind of developers conference!
11:45 - Time for lunch, and perhaps a bit of development?
10:30 - Introduction to the iPhone Development Tools - very cool tools. The instruments capability makes me want to inject bugs just to have fun finding them...
9:00 - iPhone Application Development Fundamentals
8:50 - Just looked over to see the Army Colonel who was in the video clip during the keynote. In the clip, he said something like "We are the most mobile IT environment in the world, with one of the largest user bases. And the only one whose users get shot at."
8:14 - On the bus to WWDC day 2, trying to figure out which sessions to attend today. There is some unfortunate overlap to deal with.

WWDC Day 1


6:15 - On the bus, on the way home.  Good day, overall.
5:00 - Introduction to Mac and iPhone Development - Damn, the room filled up!  And no overflow.  Apple blew this one.  Maybe I can get my money back?  ;-)
3:30 - Developer Tools State of the Union
2:00 - Mac OS X State of the Union - In the overflow room, again.  BTW, the rest of the day is "Apple Confidential", so I'll have fewer updates.
1:49 - Just learned something. Treat your iPhone earbuds carefully!  $29 bucks for a new headset.  Jeez, an entire iPhone 3G (8GB) will only be $200!
12:35 - Super Geeky network stuff...


11:30 - 3G!! GPS!!  Go, Steve!
10:38 - Looks like there will be some cool apps at AppStore.
10:18 - Still waiting for something new...
10:07 - In!!! Just as Steve came on stage...
9:58 - Still in line. Steve, don't start without us!  Enjoying conversation with other developers in line.  Some are completely new to the mac, some are super experiences.
9:37 - Still in line...

8:50 - More than an hour 'til the keynote, I'm about 50th in line, and the auditorium is already full! I knew I shouldn't have stopped to use the bathroom!
8:00 - On the bus on the way to WWDC. Can't seem to do formatted blogging from my iPhone. Will update during or after the keynote.
