WWDC bbPress Meetup Wrap-Up

I arrived a bit late to the Meetup last night due to the walk being quite a bit… longer than I expected. No matter — San Fran was lovely and temperate last night and I definitely got to know the downtown shopping district a bit better due to the walking "tour" I conducted.

WWDC Blogging

I'm sitting on the floor in Moscone West, waiting for the doors to open to the Presidio and hoping to get some seating for the Stevenote. Ho-leee cow, there are a lot of people here. The line to gain admission was around the block when I got here at 7:10 or so. [...]

The flight is filled to [...]

Airport Blogging

I'm sitting in PHL waiting for my flight to arrive and ferry me off to Apple's WWDC '07 and must admit to a good deal of excitement. Not only am I going to get to attend my first Stevenote (one that should include iPhone and Leopard info aplenty) but, as Matt Mullenweg mentioned, I'll [...]

Cold Fury… Rising.
