I’m covering CFP 2009 for TidBITS this week. My first article went live yesterday morning; part one of my coverage should be up shortly.
If you want to follow the conference yourself, follow the links from the CFP site to the live (and archived) video coverage. It’s well worth checking out the Twitter stream; not only does it contain plenty of live comments from the conference, but the live stream is being displayed on stage and is becoming part of the conversation here. I’ll have more to say about that later — it’s an extremely interesting dynamic.
It is damned hard to attend the sessions, network in the hallways, and still find the time to write articles (and participate in that live Twitstream). There’s at least four hours of conference video, filmed in another room, that I want to watch later. It’s the proverbial drink from the proverbial firehose here.
In TidBITS you advocate screenRecycler, which is little more than BO2k from some random dude in germany? ever wonder what that 15 seconds is at startup? ever read the license agreement? e.t. phone home. what would one expect of a poker junky? maybe you can get them to pull your article down off TidBITS.
