360iDev – Getting around San Jose is easy
If you booked your 360|iDev stay at the Marriott (or anywhere near it really), getting around is easy. We’ve got a shuttle that will run in the morning, and at night, Monday thru Wednesday.
All you gotta do is be downstairs when the shuttle is there and you’re all set, ride in comfort from the Marriott to Ebay Town Hall.
The shuttle schedule is below, make sure to keep it in mind!
April 11th:
Morning 7am – 8am
Evening 7:30pm – 8:30pm
April 12th
Morning 7:30am – 8:30am
Evening 7:30pm – 8:30pm
April 13th
Morning 7:30am – 8:30am
Evening 5:00pm – 6:00pm
Sleep in? No worries. If you miss the shuttle, the VTA station right outside the Marriott will get you to Ebay Town hall in no time at all (well, actually about 20 minutes). It’s about $2 for a 1 way ticket.
And of course there’s plenty of parking at ebay, but it fills up fast so don’t mess around if you’re driving in.

360iDev come for the sessions stay for the parties
360|iDev is more than just sessions. I mean, the sessions are awesome, 40+ from some of the best and brightest in the iPhone dev community. And don’t get me started on the panels…. (seperate blog post) But when the sessions are over, the parties begin. The evening receptions give everyone a chance to decompress after [...]
360iDev Touch Arcade Game Jam
Have a game idea you’ve been saving for when you have the time? Maybe you need to learn cocos2d first to do the game you want. Maybe you have too many other things going on, but the moment you have a few hours, it’s on.
Well, the Touch Arcade Game Jam, is for you :)
Starting Tuesday night, after the evening reception, we’ll be locking (Not really) anyone who wants to into a room at Ebay to crank out code all night long, 12 straight hours, through the night.
Touch Arcade is sponsoring, and will keep you hydrated, fed, and loaded up on Toblerone and Red bull.
When everyone else comes back to Ebay Town hall for the Wednesday General Session (Mike Lee, ya’ll) the Game jammers will be done, and ready to show off their creations.
Whether you’re a game developer right now or not, the game jam is the best place for you to try it out.
3 days to write an app? p-shaw! In Denver we saw something like 15 games demoed. Some made it to the app store shortly after, some are still being worked on for future (soon) release.
Come learn from experienced game developers first hand, in person.
The Game Jam is open to any 360|iDev attendee. Make sure you have a power cord :)

360iDev – iPad developers conference
the iPad runs the iPhone OS, so why wouldn’t we give it the attention it deserves? The best part is that we’ve already got sessions about it, which means, 360|iDev San Jose is the first/best place to go to learn about the differences between building games/apps for the iPad vs. the iPhone.
Several speakers have and are updating their sessions to address the iPad, Kendall is hosting a panel on Wednesday all about the iPad. (This isn’t like panels at other events, where there wasn’t an actual iPad present)
The iPad definitely represents the next step in the iPhone OS, and Apple’s mobile computing strategy, and app and game developers are chomping at the bit to release their wares for this awesome new device.
Get your iPad April 3rd, come to 360|iDev to unlock it’s potential.
