The Discussion

Bas That knockout.js session was amazing, I had no idea that was even a thing that existed. I'm going to use that library so much from now on.

gduncan411 Thanks as always for the shout-outs guys...
"Greg Duncan View"... My 15 milliseconds of fame... LOL
And you guys don't give yourselves enough credit on getting all the MIX sessions online so quickly or how cool the new events site is. That aggregation of MS Dev events is awesome. Can't wait to see how far you take this.
(Because no good deed goes unpunished..
I'd love to see cross event searching, OData support, custom cross event filtering/feed options added to the event site... Think a custom search/feed across all events for Azure, or where The Gu speaks, or is a 100 level session... etc, etc.. So as new sessions from any future event that matches your search comes online, your feed catcher auto-magically picks it up.
Still the new Events site is great as is and a huge leap forward.

felix9 does Clint have a 'backup' that he can 'switch' ??
-
Clint @felix9: What do you mean?
-
felix9 Hanselman said every demo has a backup plan, in case something goes wrong.
-
Clint @felix9: OH! The back up plan for jellybean was A-team style, there is no back up plan once I was on stage.
I did have a backup jellybean incase one got damaged in shipping but both units "just worked".
