Well the Dayton-Cincinnati Code Camp and my presentation have both come and gone. In all, the day was a success, but I was a little disappoint in my session. Nothing in-particular went wrong, but I just never felt we got into a good flow. I feel exhaustion took a toll on my presence, but other than that, I can't explain it. Maybe Andy Roddick and I have just misplaced our mojo temporarily. We'll have to see.
Our gracious host
Jim Holmes did a fantastic job. He says there were glitches, but I never saw them. I was impressed by the number of sponsors who actually showed up with gifts.
Here are the session I went to before ducking out a bit early to help a friend move... again. Oh the life of a truck owner :/
- Python and IronPython by Catherine Devlin
- Little nap to make up for no sleep the night before.
- Lunch by Microsoft - who would miss that!
- Windows Workflow Foundation by Mike Wood
I was pretty impressed with Python and IronPython, though it mostly has to do with the cool embedded interpreter in the presentation tool. I can't imagine using it for anything other than a toy. WWF was very impressive. A little confounding as it seemed to jump around a lot, but I'm sure that will tighten up a bit. I'll definitly be using that in the near future.
I'll have the code from my presentation up on the site soon, so hopefully no-one came running right after the presentation.
