360iDev – WWDC super discounts, USB Drives, and more
y other goal in being around WWDC is to offer our special WWDC pricing. We figure you’ve paid $1600 to attend WWDC, why not cut you a break. A break in the form of $200 off the ‘first 100′ price of 360|iDev. I mean really, who can pass up $299 for a 4 day event with the best and brightest of the iPhone community? This was the second year we sold super discounted tickets to WWDC attendees, and we sold 2x as many. That’s a plus on a lot of levels!
The parties at WWDC are always a blast, and I met a ton of awesome peeps! Finally got to meet @grouchoduke! which was nice! They give me a chance to hang out, meet folks, give out cards… you see the moo cards around? Those had 15% off discount codes on them, hope you picked one up! It was a testament to the iPhone developer community that WWDC Sold out in 8 days, and was entirely iPhone focused. It’s great to see the community so huge, and getting so much love!
The upside of not being an attendee of WWDC, sleeping in :) Sorry guys, but after closing bars, it’s nice to not be up by 8-9am :)
The other thing we do at WWDC is the scavenger hunt. This was the second year we’ve done it, and judging by the interest, a HUGE success. Last year the drives sat in their hiding places for a good while, while this year, they were all gone within 30 minutes of being hidden. Congrats to those 5 folks! They all got a free pass to 360|iDev, and a bunch of awesome promo codes from some incredible developers!
360iDev – Be a Star, Show some love, Win prizes!
We’ve done this before, and we’re currently doing it for 360|Flex as well. Now it’s time to see how creative and funny the iPhone community is!
Take a look at that post. The gist is that we asked people to make short videos about what they thought of 360|Flex, and Flex in general.
So here’s your chance to be a star :)
360iDev – DUB group for connecting onsite
We had a great conversation with Chris from DUB the other day (I’ve been on the iPhone beta for a few days, and using the app for a couple of weeks) The idea isn’t super new, it’s a business card, sans business card. What’s novel (at least to me) is that you can create groups [...]
360iDev – The Speakers – Henry Balanon
“If you build it, they will come.” That used to be the saying in the early days of the iPhone App Store. But now the gold rush is over and now your efforts towards marketing become increasingly essential. There are some basic and not-so-basic things you can do to make sure you app stands out from the day it is launched. This is a MUST see presentation at 360iDev.
Prices going up for 360|iDev, act fast!
The tough thing about conferences is ordering the right amount of stuff. By “stuff”, we mean: swag (shirts, USB drives, etc), food (lunches, parties), etc. It’s always tough trying to figure out just how many of each to order. We’d like to know for sure, vs guessing. Therefore, we’re going to be trying something different. [...]
