Today's tweets since no WIFI at Dallas Tech Fest

Here is the tweets that I would have done today if we had Free WIFI access at the Frisco Westin Stonebriar Resort. I've never heard of a Tech conference (and have never attending one until now) that didn't have free WIFI... Westin /dtf09 = #fail.


#dtf09 08:00 No WIFI access dtf09=#fail

#dtf09 08:15 2nd #fail No classroom style seating with tables? WTF! Not starting off well...

#dtf09 08:30 No internet access at Westin Stonebriar. Cost $10 per day but you can't sign up online? WTF #fail

#dtf09 09:00 Attending Closures talk by Paul Holser

#dtf09 09:36 my leg is already getting warm from my laptop. I'm sure that I'll have 3rd degree burns by the end of the day...

#dtf09 10:09 Closures almost over. Wish there was more business like examples. Overall good presentation.

#dtf09 10:15 TDD talk by @benready starting

#dtf09 11:30 TDD or variations is the way to create software. Much better than hacking at code.

#dtf09 11:35 So were at a hotel and we have to go out for lunch? WTF

#dtf09 13:00 Finished lunch at Westin grill. Good lunch but Houston Techfest provided a box lunch

#dtf09 13:30 Starting @benrady talk about continuous testing.

#dtf09 14:20 Infinitest @benrady love the talk 2nd time seen it really shows WHY we need to be testing

#dtf09 14:45 Wishing I had a iPhone for email and twitter access today.

#dtf09 15:00 Next is the one that I came for (mostly) What's new in Spring 3 by Craig Walls

#dtf09 16:30 About to start the last session of the day. I'm going to hang with Ryan and learn a little about Maven2

#dtf09 17:05 Good presentation but Ryan is also missing wireless and may have to cut it short because of it.

#dtf09 18:00 Dallas Techfest is over. Now I get to go home and send all my tweets? WTF
