On Sat­urday I flew to Mel­bourne to attend Bar­camp.
Very dif­fer­ent to the Sydney Bar­camp: more FOSS people, more code.
Man­aged to score a 5 minute slot near the end of the day. After a long day of PHP, eee PCs, Open XML and other depth­ful things — and being the last offi­cial presenter before beer-o-clock (kindly sponsored […]

Mar­tin Maly of the Iron­Py­thon team has imple­men­ted LOLCODE on the DLR.
This means that one day we can all manip­u­late the DOM in browsers with LOLCODE.
Thanks to our part­ners, and the free­dom of time that TechEd Europe has given Mar­tin: we’re mov­ing to total world pro­gram­ming lan­guage dom­in­a­tion.

After passing all the rules for Wiki­pe­dia, and being marked for dele­tion, LOLCODE is now a per­man­ent entry in Wiki­pe­dia.
A big thanks to Long Zheng for report­ing my Microsoft present­a­tion. Long has been busy: this is his 4th wiki-link.
Also, a shout out to @atl for giv­ing the world some­thing we can LOL about.

Five things I saw today that I liked:

Mark Pesce’s Python BlueS­can­ner
Liam and Alex’s Present­a­tion on Lua in Garry’s Mod (hence missed Anna Liu’s present­a­tion)

The expert­ise of those who have gone down the VC path: the depth of shar­ing was great
