360iDev – got Plans wednesday night? (30th)
We wrote her back and agreed to let her volunteer around the conference. Before you open up a new email, we’ve accepted 2 people to help out, which is 2 more than we usually accept, and we’re not accepting more, we would if we could, but we just can’t our margins aren’t high enough on each ticket to give away 20 or so to those who can’t afford it.
Back to the story, the only night Ali isn’t free is Wednesday night (which is ok, we normally have no official activities on Wed. night) because her band is playing at a local venue in Denver, just north of the conference.
So now, we have an official/unofficial outing for Wednesday night. We’re going to trek (It’s walkable, but not short) to Larimer Lounge to see Choke the Word perform!
Ali sent us a few MP3′s so ya’ll can see what they sound like. If you dig it, print out this sheet of tickets. They get points for every ticket that comes in and if they get 50 they get more bookings, help ‘em out. It’ll be fun!
360iDev – iPhone 101 Hands On Training Sunday
We’re really excited to be able to offer a 101 Hands on course. Education is important and while we love that our topics trend towards the advanced, we want to make sure those with less iPhone development experience can attend the conference and still come away with a great feeling of learning.
We don’t charge for our Sunday training (Have you checked the schedule lately?) because we think there’s no reason to. We want as many of our attendees to join us Sunday as possible to increase their knowledge and skill set. Plus there’s no reason 1 day pre-Conference training should be an extra fee.
Apress is the Official Sponsor of 360|iDev
Having an official show sponsor is a new thing for us. It’s something that we’ll have to investigate and grow, much like everything we do in relation to the shows. The most important thing for us though is making sure that the official sponsor is a great fit for our attendees.
We’ll be honest. The concept/idea wasn’t ours. We’ve been chatting with the folks at Apress for the past couple of weeks in an attempt to expand their participation at the event. From editors to marketing folks, everyone we’ve chatted with has been awesome!. It’s therefore with great excitement that we announce them as the first Official Sponsor of 360|iDev. It’s a relationship that we hope will continue to grow and evolve as the show does.

Tom and I just got off a conference call with a great company that wants to be way more involved in 360|iDev. That means cool stuff going on that the conference! We’ll be announcing it all on Tuesday, but it’s pretty awesome. We’re really excited about the potential this sponsor brings to the conference! Stay [...]
