PyCon 2007

Polimetrix, Inc. was well represented at PyCon this year. Since MrShoe.org's readership includes both pythonistas and non-pythonistas, I should explain that PyCon is the annual community-organized conference for the Python programming language. This year Jamie, Christian, Ryan, Brad, and I all attended. We had a great time. Here are some highlights.

Jamie and I gave a talk entitled Scaling Python for High-Load Web Sites. The talk was both well attended and well received. Some prominent pythonistas have shown their approval. The slides were also posted to reddit and a number of people del.icio.us'd them. We also had some very interesting conversations in the halls with fellow pythonistas who have dealt with some of the problems we covered in the talk. All in all it was a worthwhile experience and I enjoyed it.

Hanging out in the Web Dudes Pad with Bob Brewer, Chad Whitacre, Ian Bicking, and others was a lot of fun. It was great just to meet those guys. Together we reached python enlightenment. I learned that Chad can make just about any conversation entertaining. Bob, I vote the Web Dudes Pad becomes an instant PyCon tradition.

Some of my favorite talks included Ivan Krstic's keynote about the OLPC project and Interactive Parallel and Distributed Computing with IPython, by Brian Granger.

Playing poker at 4am with jamwt and dowski was also fun.

Here's hoping it's not in Texas (near Dallas) next year
