Well, it's been an amazing PDC.  Before I came I thought it would be mostly about the sessions and the technology, but it's also about catching up with people, making new relationships and socialising.  So many times I've thought that I'll have to wait for the DVD to review the material and let it all settle in my head.  The time here has mostly been about understanding the general directions and seeing the motivations and directions for the technology.  As one friend said, "why go to the sessions to watch the PowerPoint when I can go to the Microsoft Product Pavillion and get a Product Manager or Lead Developer to take me through it?"

Some outstanding points;

• Meeting Chris Sells and Steve Maine in person.
• Catching up with all the bloggers shown on my photo blog roll.
• Chating with the Microsoft employees at the Pavillion, the sessions and in the speaker lounge.
• Seeing Jamie Cansdale get the opportunity to demo his NUnit Addin and other tools to Anders Hejlsberg (inventor of C#) and James Newkirk one of the creators of NUnit.
• Seeing my blog stats go through the roof.
• Spending an evening at Universal Studios and managing to ride only th escalators as I was so busy catching up with other bloggers that the rides had shut by the time I got there.
• The end of having to guess what Indigo is.

I'm really excited to see the new technology and to get on board the Indigo wave.
