I'm doing my Objects talk again today (Thursday)

My session on Tuesday was good, but not very long due to the embarrasing fact that I wrote the wrong time in my PDA calendar and thus got there late, and compounded by the fact that Joe Stagner told the crowd I was drunk and hung over and to give me shit about it, and then further compounded by an early dismissal on my part because I was freaked out about going into overtime.

For the record, I was NOT hungover. I was in my hotel room writing code. I was NOT drinking the night before, I was at the Jam sessions playing my ass off and drinking water (ask anyone who was there if I was drinking). Joe was having some fun at my expense. Joe, you're a great guy, but that wasn't funny. Nuff said.

Needless to say the talk could have been longer, and the people deserve to see the whole thing.

So, I'm doing the talk again today Thursday. Here are the details:

So you THINK you know what an Object is...

Thursday, 11:45 AM in Room 1AB

It will be from 11:45 to 12:30 and we will start on time.

It was funny to me, but Microsoft didn't think it was so funny. It was the kind of practical joke that demands reciprocation. :-)

Carl,

I remember you displaying a link to the mp3 player you guys use for recording the show, I couldn't find the link anymore. Can you post it to your blog or the .netrocks page. Googling didnt help either.

Thanks,
Kannan

NOW I find out. I was in the ill-fated 30 minute version on Tuesday, and had no idea it was being presented again. Wish I knew that then.

On another but somewhat related subject, who was that great keyboard player who seemed to be running the show at the Jam Session?

That was Ralph Rivel. He started the sessions in 1993.

It's the Archos Multimedia Jukebox. We used it only when we did remote shows. Now I have a better one, an iRiver H120(http://www.iriveramerica.com/products/hd.aspx)

Now unless there's no way to do it, we use a laptop and microphones with an M-Audio Duo USB interface.
