OOPSLA 2008 – Days 2 and 3

Day 2 of OOPSLA I spent time in a workshop, but perhaps a bit more time than I should have. There was a lot of great dialog and ideas thrown about during the first half of the day, but the second half of the day I didn’t really contribute much and should have excluded myself. Argh… lesson learned I guess. The workshop wasn’t bad… just didn’t get much value out of it in the second half. :(

Yesterday was pretty interesting. Mark Lehner gave an interesting speach on archeology and software development. In the second half of the day I went to a very awesome tutorial by Linda Rising on how to promote change within your organization. It’s the first time I have been to one of Linda Rising’s sessions and I must say she is a very great speaker and does a great job at organizing activities that keep people focused and help them learn… I’m surprised that I still retain in my mind all the patterns she mentioned. ;)

I missed the BoF sessions last night.. but luckily I think the ones I am interested in are tonight.
