MAX Keynote
The keynote ran a little long this morning, but it was well worth it. With speakers like Kevin Lynch and Ben Forta there was a lot of good stuff. Not only was their good information about the company itself (along with some marketing... this is their conference ;), there were also quite a few new product announcements and teases.
Ben gave us a little insight into the next version of ColdFusion under development, codenamed Blackstone. I'm hoping to see it in the Sneak Peeks session tomorrow afternoon. We also saw a demo of Flex as well as the new Flex editor based on Dreamweaver, codenamed Brady. And along with that we also got a preview of something called RoboDemo, which basically records your actions in Dreamweaver similar to Camtasia, but also annotates everything for you based on the dialog boxes. Very tasty for us trainer types :).
I did however skip out on my first session. The Keynote ran a little long, I made to my Practical CSS for Navigation and Layout session and found it standing room only and a little too basic to keep me engaged. So it looks like I just get to hang out until my next session at 11:15, Advanced Database Techniques (I hope they're really advanced :)
