The Last (Best?) HOPE

Filed under: — Rob @ 8:34 am

We’ve posted the full schedule of talks which will be featured at The Last HOPE.

The conference will feature an unprecedented 100 talks, squeezed into three tracks over three days. There will also be an unscheduled track, where anyone who shows up and claims a timeslot can speak about anything they wish, and various ongoing activities and presentations in other areas of the con space. I think it’s safe to say there will be a far broader and more eclectic spectrum of things to see and do at this hacker con than ever before.

Personally, I’m really excited to be a part of it as a staff member (planning and artwork,) as a speaker (with some of my pals from PLA scene,) and most of all as an attendee.

At the risk of sounding unforgivably cheesy, I’m just upset that it won’t be physically possible for me to attend more than a third of the presentations on that list.

    Heyyyyy Rob. We should talk. Give me a call sometime if you can or pop on AIM. (Phone number removed - Rob) Leet, baby.

    And I’m just kinda reeling that… oh, crap, I have a formal presentation now… I better not suck! Yeah… I’m a bit scared and trying to remember why I let people talk me into the formal track. Not that I don’t know my stuff, but some of it, I’m a little new at and trying to keep to an hour and actually have a cohesive presentation… YIKES! ZOMG TEH PREZZURE!

    I just hope that the PLA talk isn’t during my talk. Because that would suck donkey balls. (BTW, who should I talk to about making sure that doesn’t happen?)

    Oh, and you might want to tell your friend Rie that anyone can read her(?) phone number. Yeah.

    I should show up and try and do a talk that competes with the PLA panel. That’d sure show you PLA types.
