On the way back from Mix 09

 AT&T have kindly opened up their internet for the weekend (at Philly airport) which gives me a good opportunity to update my blog a little bit.

This week I popped over to Las Vegas for the Microsoft Mix 09 conference. A conference which puts together developers and designers and brings them to one. I won't go into details on the Keynotes or Sessions at this point cause I do eventually have a plane to catch but I'll follow up with a longer blog post about the sessions I saw and what I thought of them. It was really good to meet a few guys there and most of which is down to the style of the conference which is very open and free.

I managed to get a little bit of spare time (there was plenty of after conference events to attend with Mix attendees) to head to downtown Las Vegas "The Old Vegas". It was quite a big difference to the main strip - not too busy. A little weirder to the main strip (yeah, it's possible) and seems much more locals in the casion than tourists. I took a few photos so I'll have to put them up when I get back. I know Phil has a good few photos so I'll have to grab them from him when I get the chance too.

I'm already looking forward to Mix 10 on 15th - 17th March at Mandalay Bay in Vegas!
