Web 2.0 Summit Trades Totes for Philanthropy
NOTE: Original Post by Kim Kochaver on November 13, 2008 Anyone who has been to more than one conference knows the check-in drill: badge, materials, branded pen and a token tote bag to lug around said materials. If you’re lucky, you might scor...

I actually thought the 'Gustav' bros were pretty cool. There was a bit of a sales pitch in there, but they at least tried to put some different approaches out there, which embrace what web 2.0 is supposed to be about.
The Web in the World
I found it very insightful, and I am still inspired by the notion that these new technologies provide a wonderful pallet for the world's most creative minds.
Pearls of Wisdoms for Start-ups from Web 2.0 Summit

The Web in the World
Unfortunately I didn't see the presentation. Sounds very interesting! For many of the services which were introduced at the Web2Ex, the enablement regarding their mobile usage was self-evident, albeit mostly not with real location awareness.
Meet & Greet Mobile Lifestyle 3.0: The location based information spaces of the Web 3.0 turn the whole world into a three-dimensional interaction space which is not based on the current position of a mouse, but the current position of the interacting user. Virtual applications are turned into mobile lifestyle.
Being a trend scout and media artist I have been engaged in this matter for years. I just created a gadget with which we could reflect upon this paradigm shift. We should do this together! After all: the user-centered media cultures of the Web 3.0 don’t just create more virtual possibilities; they also create new economic, cultural and social realities that have to be designed co-creatively and with social acuity.

this session was more of a waste of time, than an added value... two swedish guys, who think, they are hip & cool, and just talking about themselves and what they are / have been doing, than giving hardcore give aways.
this is not a workshop, this is a sellingshop.
Web Analytics and User Experience for Web 2.0 Apps
Can´t comment as this never held. Anyhow, quite a disappointment as thisis one of the hot topics on the field..

Is the presentation going to be available for this session? Pretty please?
Easy Deployment of Site-Extensions with a Browser Plugin
Sorry for late answer. I spent yesterday traveling home.
Well, sort of to both questions. You can't really write any significant piece of Javascript without hitting at browser specific parts. You may offload part of this burden on libraries like jQuery, and we do, but with complex enough problems never all of it. But I better start with high-level overview.
Our extensions/plugins are made of two parts. A platform specific loading part like Firefox extension or WordPress PHP plugin, purpose of which is to insert loader.js into page. How this part looks like obviously depends on platform in question, but that's more or less everything they do.
Loader.js is a short javascript that loads widget by inserting a couple of Javascript files and a couple of CSS files. These 4 files together with images form the other part of the extension, widget itself. One JS and one CSS are generic, which means absolutely the same on all platforms and for all browsers. They implement skeleton of widget together with its "brains".
Then we also have a blogging platform specific javascript file and CSS, purpose of both being to integrate our widget well with specifics of given blogging platform.
We don't have browser specific files, but we do sometimes have to check what facilities browser offers and take that into an account.
I don't know enough about AOD to call it such, but code is indeed structured to provide aspects to which platform specific code is written. Example would be a function that finds an editor on page and returns an appropriate object to work with. Since there are many Javascript rich text editors out there and sometimes none on page, we have to handle this platform by platform.
Hopefully this answers your question, but please let me know if anything is unclear.
Redesigning Drupal.org: An Exercise in Open Source Design
A very innovate yet sensible approach. I was wondering that after your work with Drupal you would be working with those guys from Wango?
Improving Your Site's Usability - What Users Really Want
Great presentation Leisa. More confirmation rather than revelation for me, but speaking to people afterwards they seemed to get the most out of your presentations. Congratulations on not mentioning web 2.0 throughout.
The Web in the World
This was one of the better presentations on this event.
Mobile 2.0
Really great presentation. In the proces of making our website suitable for mobile this presentation was very useful. But Brian was a bit in a hurry (but I understand his explanation) so at the end it all went a bit too fast for me. In Europe we have a comic book hero called Lucky Luke. He is a famous cowboy, because "he shoots faster than his shadow". Brian is the new hero; he can talk faster than his shadow :-)). Thanks anyway, Brian!
Designing for Flow
Very useful presentation. Would have liked more examples.

Thanks Frank. Learn more on what, specifically?
Beyond Who Else Bought What
Presentation fast and high energy - left me behind sometimes (could have perhaps done a bit more laying foundations - setting the scene). However, the examples made a great difference and overall it was a fascinating presentation.
The Truth about Social Network Advertising -- The One VCs Don't Want to Hear
The topic sounded intriguing - and I don't think it's dead either - so shame not to hear/discuss that. However, I enjoyed the 'Thank you for killing Facebook' presentation. It would be good to learn more.
Easy Deployment of Site-Extensions with a Browser Plugin
wait a sec... are you saying that the javascript is NOT browser specific? are you using Aspect Oriented design to insert code into the page that is rendering? or what?
Easy Deployment of Site-Extensions with a Browser Plugin
That said, I do use a few browser plugins myself... because they are so useful. FireFTP for example, Venkman, etc... but every time I upgrade Firefox and see that message about version / plugin compatibility problems I cringe.
Let All Things Be Connected
I know there is a great potential to this technology. It might have been funny examples that were presented. But imagine RFID in everything you buy in a supermarket. You leave the shop without going to at cash till. You just confirm that you will pay with your credit card.
Great potential.
