Throughout the day I’ve had my eye on the Twitter stream, responding, retweeting and keeping people up to date one what’s coming next. Almost every single tweet has been positive except for the fact that it’s freezing in here (but really, what conference isn’t cold?? I freeze at every single conference I go to). As with SES San Jose, I’ve put together a compilation of all the amazing information that attendees have been coming away with and tweeting.
The sessions and tweets are listed in descending order, in other words: select * from session order by session.time desc. Also you may be wondering where the Q & A session is… I felt it needed a post of it’s own, so stay tuned!
(Please excuse my horrible images, I had to use my cell phone.)
