Conference notes, Vol. 1
By William M. Hartnett on Mar 8, 2007 in CAR
Interesting session at the conference this morning in which Daniel Lathrop and Chase Davis compared Perl and Python. I’ve hit a few Perl books and hated every second of it, so Python sounds more up my alley. My dark, foreboding, programming-phobic alley.
Decent panel discussion on newsroom intranets, despite the fact that neither of the scheduled speakers could make it. But the most interesting discovery I made during the panel was this USA Today story on the big announcement that Genesis are reuniting for a tour. (And never mind what I said here. I’m all over that site these days.) Very exciting news, and I say that without even the hint of a shadow of a suggestion of irony. But ticket prices that start at $75? WTF?
