I got a rare opportunity this year to attend the ÜberConf in Denver, Colorado. At the Columbus NFJS event, I helped set up and some other minor things and kept pushing the organizer, Jay Zimmerman, to let me help in Denver. It worked.
I arrived Sunday at 4pm and began working at 5pm. Wow. I earned it this year. That first night Ben and I worked on binders etc. until 1:30 am. We got up Monday morning relatively early and began working of flash drives. Throughout the day we did session handouts, projectors and general room arrangement.
Monday didn't end until 10:30 or so I think. Tuesday the first wave of the conference began. I helped in the Android workshop and Ben the iOS workshop. Good times. I was helpful the first half of the day but the second half we were doing SMS messaging among other things and I was at a bit of a loss there.
Honestly I had only messed with Android for a month or so since Jay said I could go if I helped with that session. Not bad to do with a Java background. iOS sound more sexy to me though since I'm a Mac guy.
In any event, with one day left I am tired but excited about some things I learned.
Now if I could only remember some of it!
