Sorry I haven't written anything in a while, I've been in San Francisco at the 2008 Apple WWDC learning a mess about programming the iPhone. The conference has been very good so far, with some seminars being a bit too much of a review of things everyone here probably already knows, some blazing through difficult material so quickly that I've been left confused, and some are just about right. By far my favorite thing I've been able to to so far is sit and work with the actual engineers who wrote the software that runs on the iPhone. This has been wonderful. Having these guys sit and help me work on my dumb test applications has been fun. They're great. The iPhone is really a very cool little device.
Tonight they threw a bash surprised most everyone by having Bare Naked Ladies play for the party. Those guys actually know more about Apple products than I do. They made jokes throughout the show about things like the Apple Newton and how each successive OS release will be represented by a successively "rarer" and "more exotic" member of the cat family. (OSX 10.6 is named Snow Leopard) They rocked. My brain is full.
