Adobe Max 2007: Day 0: That's Hot...

Let the games begin! I've survived the first day at Max 2007 leading an enjoyable introductory Flex session. 7 hours of Flex training that usually is delivered over 4 or 5 days is a challenge, to say the least.

A very special thanks to all who attended and my TAs, Rod, Mac, Kazue and Larry.

I guess the best story so far is that on the flight from Toronto to Chicago, we had none other than Paris Hilton on board. I think "That's Hot" is her slogan. I've got some bad quality phone-camera shots of her at the airport, but I chickened out of asking her if she'd pose with me for a picture. She looked like she was in a bad mood. Or is she always that pouty?

I had a chance to meet a lot of people in person that I've "known" for years via email and connect sessions. Always nice to put a face to a name. Also had the chance to hook up with some old friends which was great.

Tomorrow night is the big general meeting where product announcements are traditionally made. Watch this space for details; they're sure to be exciting!

My session today:

We'll always have Paris...
