Videos?
I heard from a few sources that the videos from the conference will be made available. I do video, so I know it takes time to produce. I'm just wondering if there is an idea of when and how it is expected to be maid available.
Thanks!

Thanks!
The conference was great! A lot of great minds both on stage and sitting around me. I'm looking forward to talking my employers into funding trips to more of the AP gatherings.

About those books...
I heard that everyone got a couple really great books as part of the conference. What is the delay from registering to when they should arrive? I haven't seen them yet but I didn't register until early this month.

I'm starting my day at the delicious David's Deli... the best breakfast I have ever had in San Fran.
Then I'll be wandering around looking for some trouble to get into. Join me?

Networking Tips
A great conference happens when everyone is having fantastic hallway conversations. We setup CrowdVine networks to make it easier for you to find people in the hallway. If you've never used a social network at a conference (or even if you have) he...

what UX ideas are Made To Stick?
Hopefully many of you have been diving into Made to Stick and Peak, from the MX book club. Reading Made to Stick have made me ask, "what makes for a sticky idea about user experiences?" Ideas in UX need to be sticky so that upper managements and o...

MX Book Club and stuff
Well, my books arrived nice and early Monday morning. The Chip, Chip and Dan duo. I've yet to dig into the content, other than reading the inserts and exploring the bindings, stock and overall quality.
Being a UXI alumni I can't help but wonde...

Being Creative in a Mad Mad World
Corporate life is nuts. Senior management is crazy. How can you maintained sustained focus on creative projects that take weeks (or longer) when you have daily demands that continually divert team attention?
