Live from Austin
Hoowah! AGDC. A time for us to come down to the capitol, drink a few beers, shake a few hands and see some old friends. Oh yeah, we're also here to learn a few things and as long as we can stay away from such mental blow jobs as the MMO rant, we're likely to do so.
Bloo and I got in last night and true to tradition, hit B.D. Riley's for dinner. Mistake! Consider tradition forever broken. Unlike our usual Wednesday night arrival the con is now 3 days, the food was terrible (usually the fish and chips are amazing) and of all gawd forsaken things it was OPEN MIKE NIGHT! Whoever invented that should be shot.
Well we're off to the keynote by that guy I never heard of who designed WoW. There seem to be a few of those guys but it promises to be fun. If you're in Austin, drop me a comment and we'll see if we can hook up.

Yeah, I'm hating you right now.
Shame about Riley's. That's one of my favorite haunts.
I really wish I could be up there. Then I could bug even more devs for jobs =/
So. find out anything worth noting?
Quite a lot actually. Mostly design stuff and general practices but some great stuff. I particularly liked Damion's talk and Rich Vogel had production gems as always. I took a bunch of notes and have a lot of contacts to get to but I'l try and blog that stuff this week and next.
