WebVisions Wrap

July 24, 2006 | 2 Comments

Short version: It was great. I highly recommend it to any Web professional. It’s not SXSW, but it’s just as good in many ways.

Longer version: I had a great time in Portland. The conference went very smoothly, as did our panel, thanks to the talents of my co-hosts and Bryan’s great moderation. You can see the slides at Bryan’s site. I didn’t get to see as many sessions as I’d have liked but the few I did see were wonderful. I really wish I could have made it to Brian’s mobile session (even though I’ve seen much of it before) which I’m told was great. He’s got some really great slides for that here.

As always the most rewarding part of the conference were the hallway meetings and parties. Mad props to Raincity and crew, not only for the event they hosted, but just for being smart and cool people to hang with. You guys rock!

As do all the other great folks I got to spend some time with. Really, it was a blast and I wish I’d had even more time!

I also want to give a big thanks goes to Kris for hooking me up with some great photo connector thingys. (Thanks Kris!) You can see what he did with ‘em here. Speaking of photos, I should have mine up soon, but for now you can start by searching for webvisions06, webvisions2006, or just webvisions. Oh and keep an eye on superfluousblowjob! ;0)

Anyway, it was great and I can’t wait to do it again next year. Back to work!

I think I have commented on this elsewhere, but I would love to see more conferences recording the audio and making podcasts like @media did.

I think it would help those of us less fortunet to go to the conferences, and it could help promote them for next year…

Great meeting you, Keith. I too, am looking forward to next year. I went ahead and added your incredibly cute flickr tag to some of my photos as well ;)

I’ll keep you posted on the trip to Seattle.
