Crowd Notes (Twitter favorites) from An Event Apart 2009 Seattle

One thing I really enjoy about Twitter is the conversations that happen during an event. So, while attending An Event Apart this week, I took most of my notes on my iPhone. My powerbook is 7 years old, and I refused to take my PC to this event. Surprisingly, the iphone worked out great. At times the wireless was faulty; but the iPhone fell back on the edge network. I spent two days of tweeting while marking clever, funny and informative comments as favorites (generated by the crowd, on twitter.com). At the finish of the conference I ended up with 278 noteworthy entries [ twitter hashtag: #aea09 ]. I viewed the favorites on twitter and copied the ordered list (source) into an HTML presentation (S5) template by Eric Meyer. Check out the presentation at aea09.pixelhandler.com. Much of the conversation was centered around the topic of User Experience (UX).

Update (5/10/09) – I added an iPhone CSS stylesheet to the presentation to make it mobile friendly for Apple enthusiasts.
