I will be attending LotusPhere 2010 this year

While preparing for LotusPhere I have found some pretty cool stuff, so I thought I would document it here...

• Volker Weber has made available a DropBox folder that contains all the LotusPhere presentations. Way cool.
• Somehow while poking around I ended up coming back to Google Wave which I never really delved into very deep. That is a truly cool application that I'm sure will be useful once it's out of preview
• LotusPhere Online is using Connections now. It also supports exporting your calendar out in iCal format so that you can import it into some other calendering tool. More on that in a moment...
• IQJam on Android and the iPhone will be demoed at LotusPhere
• Setting up a portable Domino Server for use only at LotusPhere while disconnected from the internet. Useful, but a pain and probably un-needed, but we'll see
• An iPhone/Mobile/Android app to assist you with planning your LotusPhere 2010 sessions from Mikkel Heisterberg can be found here
• Check out Mary Beth Raven, she has a lot going on, check out all her posts
• The LotusPhere 2010 Sessions Database is now available here
• Trying to predict anything I may need from the house in case a work issue comes up, another pain but hopefully means I'm prepared in case anything comes up
• Plus a lot of other stuff floating all around the Yellowverse

Now, onto Google Calendar. I'm using my personal Android phone while at LotusPhere and wanted to have my LotusPhere calendar available via the Google Calendar. I created a new calendar and imported all my sessions and the overall LotusPhere schedule into the new calendar, however it seemed to mess up the times that these events take place. It was rather anoying. Especially when I shared the calendar with my co-workers and boss.

On Google Wave, I was thinking this would be a good Live Blogging tool, however since you must have a Wave preview account with Google, not such a good tool for this instance, for now

I intend on making it to the B.A.L.D event this year. In years past when I've attended LotusPhere I didn't get there in time. This year hopefully I'll get there around 4:30 or 5:00. I look forward to seeing everyone. Hope to see you at LotusPhere!
