MSY-IAH-SEA. 6 hours of flying means hopefully getting caught up on email and a blog post or two. DirectTV may be a distraction though!
@azmerf great to meet you too! glad you enjoyed and learned lots!
Sweet, was quoted in PC World for my IE9 presentation at #TechEd - http://bit.ly/aF3Teo
Wow, last day of #TechEd, what’s been your favorite part so far?
#TechEd website didn’t HTML encode the marquee tag in my bio. Oops! The irony is I know better!
@codepo8 no interpretive dance, though that would have been fun. Did presentation all in HTML with an Ajax app. Worked well!
does not like early morning sessions, I’m presenting HTML5 Features in IE8 at 8am this morning, and then 2 more sessions today! Busy #TechEd
Trying something new for my IE9 for Developers. Session starts in 30 minutes.
I’m repeating “10 Things I Hate About Your Website” on Wednesday (6/9/10) at 6:45pm in rm 346. Hopefully no network problems this time!! 😃
it kind of sucks when you lose your internet connection during a presentation that needs on the internet 😦 Will post sites later today!
@SarahSosiak - d’oh, LOVE IT! 😃
@SarahSo - LOVE IT! 😃
made it to #TechEd, and ready for my Top 10 Mistakes Made By Web Developers When Designing Websites. I think it needs a better title though!
is flying to TechEd in 4 hours. Excited to meet some new folks and show off IE9!
Off to find trouble at Sea World. The sky looks like a Seattle day, but it’s about 30F warmer. Yay!! GayDays Orlando can officially begin!
did my first dry run today for my @IE session at #TechEd next week. Went well, now to finish the slides, it’s all in HTML and IE9!
my deck is done, and I’m ready to present at #aea. being up after @jmspool is always tough though!
Out with the An Event Apart speakers doing karaoke… Well, they are, I’ve made enough enemies this week, so I’m not singing. 😃
@aircanada_com I can’t check in online from Seattle? You’re joking right? This is 2010? I don’t remember how to check in at the airport!!
Just saw flava flav on the Mandalay bay floor at #mix10 with @ie folks. Wow. Go flava!
@yatil it was good to meet you then! Hopefully I’ll make it back there soon!
@meyerweb but it makes the merger with united that much easier. But I agree, sad to lose it.
Had a good night at @KraveLasVegas last night! It was no SXSWi party but in some ways, somewhat better!
@kravelasvegas is a blast!
is at @krave with a whole wack o folks. Trouble has been found and given a name.
At the airport of to Vegas for #Mix10, can’t wait for the cool @IE stuff on Tuesday
@patrickpilcher great to meet you today! thanks for all the awesome suggestions!
has landed back in Seattle. Saudi was awesome! I love to go back!
is packing for Saudi Arabia. 4 of the 8 presentations are ready, the keynote still has a ways to go, but it’s only about 15 min… eek! 😃
really great #aea09, happy to head home even if only for 50 hours. Needs some sleep and relaxation time!
if you want to try Expression Web Super Preview, there are trial versions at the Microsoft booth, and free tshirts #aea #aeasf09
@mager we’re working on it! No time to talk about it on stage, but find me and ask! we want folks off IE6 ASAP too! trust me!
@sparksm running those multiple IE version is somewhat dangerous and isn’t what your customers see - check out http://bit.ly/160pOO
@gercheq it’s always a fun challenge, i just hope they hear that we’re not the MS we used to be.
@joshthewebguy not all of us are in the hall, i’ve been hanging out in most of the sessions!
@andrewmaier Many responsibility, but most importantly want to make sure we give you the ability to do new cool stuff, & not break the old.
@quevin We’ve got free trials outside at the Microsoft table, to buy the full version, you only need Expression Web which is $179 I think.
@briannelsondsgn it does, but it runs locally as opposed to Adobe Browser Labs… And there is the free version available.
just gave my slides for my presentation to the #AEA folks, you should be able to grab them shortly!
think’s he’s ready for his 8:15 presentation tomorrow, though after seeing today’s speakers, is very nervous. They were all GREAT! eek!
would like to know who creates some of our slide decks. I at least will take full responsibility for mine.
