360iDev – Who attends 360idev?
360|iDev, since it’s beginning has attracted an awesome mix of people. The first conference in 2009, had several sessions, including a sunday Hands-On about Jailbreaking, and what you can do in the jailbroken environment. We also had tons of people who had just put 1 or 2 apps in the store, we had a few [...]
360iDev – Wiki
If you saw the announcement of BOF sessions, you know we have a wiki we use for the ad hoc stuff around the conference.
We updated the wiki for one more bit of ad hoc. Activities.
If you’re planning a trip to the mothership or hitting a specific bar one night, or a movie on Wednesday or lunch on Saturday before the conference, whatever. Post it on the activities page of the wiki.
This way folks looking for the fun, can find it easily ;) It truly does suck to have to hunt for fun :)
On the main page of the wiki is also a few links for hotel searches in the area. If you missed the room block, shame on you, but we don’t want ya sleepin’ on the street, so check those links for other options.
360iDev – Birds of a Feather sessions
For those that don’t know what a Birds Of a Feather session is, it’s basically an ad hoc session organized by attendees or speakers, or anyone really for that matter (sorry can’t walk in off the street, gotta at least be an attendee).
Maybe it’s a Sci fi meetup or how to best create app icons, or a round table chat about the benefits of core data… whatever you want, literally. We’ve got a wiki set up with a BOFs page.
360iDev – Recorded Speaker Chats
If you haven’t been able to join us for the last few speaker chats, you’re missing out. They’re great sources of information and a great way to get to know the speakers before 360|iDev.
360iDev – In Pictures
I posted about what you do and don’t get, and we’ve done more posts than I can count on the overall vibe, and the parties etc. So I wanted to take a minute to just post some pictures of the past 360|iDev events. I grabbed these off of flickr. The technical content you get at 360|iDev is beyond compare, truly, feel free to ask anyone who’s attended, but that’s just part of the story. The rest is the community of iPhone developers geeking out, sharing stories, code, forming companies, finding work, etc.
What you won’t see or get at 360iDev
It occurred to me, that it might be a good idea to make it clear what does/doesn’t happen at 360|iDev for those who might not know.
If you haven’t registered for 360|iDev, you’re missing out. This is a quote from past speaker Jake Behrens, “@360iDev Thank you! The conference put my life in a direction I never imagined I’d be in. You rock!“
360iDev – Volunteer to help out and get in free
We realize that the economy still a little suck-tastic. As you may know we try to keep our events as cost effective as possible, 40 sessions, Sunday hands on. Hotel block pricing to help lower the cost of staying near the event, etc.
Sometimes it’s not enough, we get that. Back in September we experimented with having volunteers. We’ve had temps at past events (360|Flex San Jose ’07 and Seattle) and while that works ok, we tried to reduce the need, because that helped keep our costs low.
BUT
We’ve realized, time and again that we still need manpower at certain points, and in fact we’re planning to increase our need (More on that later).
Registration is a bottleneck, whether it’s just Tom and I, or my wife Nicole, or anyone else who pities us in our time of greatest need.
SO…
360iDev – Get your iPad Dev on!
So yeah, iPad this iPad that :) The best part of Apple’s new iPad, is that it runs the iPhone OS, that means our awesome speakers and attendees now have one more kick ass platform to write apps and games for.
That also means that 360|iDev is now THE event for developers writing apps for the iTouch, the iPhone, or the iPad. You won’t have to wait for WWDC, or for the next 360|iDev around the end of summer some time. You can get awesome iPad related sessions right now, this April.
