Workshops Day 1

Not a bad day today at the Future of Web Apps in semi-sunny Miami yesterday.   I attended two workshop sessions, the first was with the fine Dan Rubin, speaking on the finer workings of user-design and interface-design.  Good topic, quality discussion.  I had a chance to meet with Dan later in the day and we talked about two of my favorite topics — software bloat, and also the convergence of the animation industry and the web industry.

Second session of the day was Kevin Hale from Wufoo, “Building a web app from A-Z”.  It’s was alright… basically he just talked through how Wufoo came to life and some experiences they had along the way.   He had a couple gems to pick up, and some great book recommendations.

Today the conference begins and I’m actually sitting in a rockstar seat as we speak, ready for the shenanigans to begin.
