FOWA Day 1 (updated)
Oct
I’ll keep updating this post as the day goes on (internet access permitting) – rather than keep posting.
It’s been a great start to the day with talks from Kevin Rose, Blaine Cook, Joe Stump and Edwin Aoki all giving great insight into the inner workings of the webapp kings. (Photos to come)
Less good has been the talk by Alvin Woon, Stefen Fountain (after the initial sales patter, I wandered off to find some internet), and of course, the Wifi. Or rather, lack thereof. Thankfully Sun Microsystems are onhand with a set of boxes ready for internet use.
*update* ok, the internet at FoWA suffered from epic fail all day long. My updates because of this were limited, to the point where I decided not to bring my laptop for day 2. Probably a good thing considering how many free beers were on offer, but that’s a moot point.
My favourite talk of the day goes to the awesome Ben Huh of icanhazcheezburger.com fame – unfortunately, there’s no video up yet from FoWA, but I found this from another conference:
Enjoy.
