Re:Conference VIII

I'm leaving the office now to head to Santa Clara, California, where I'll be covering the Supernova conference for the rest of the week. The roster of speakers is impressive, and the conversations are sure to be fascinating.

I'll be posting partial transcripts of the sessions I sit in on here over the course of the next two days, so be sure to check in frequently. What's new, now? FC Now.
