The last of Apple’s 2008 WWDC sessions ended today at 3:15 today and the labs are closing at 6:15.

This was my first year attending Apple’s WWDC and it was great. I’ve meet some interesting mac and iPhone developers as well as some Apple engineers. I look forward to attending WWDC next year, and hopefully I will be able to attend WWDC09 as a student, as I did this year.

I’ve learned a lot here at WWDC and I plan on doing some more programming. On my other blog, OS X 411, I live blogged the WWDC keynote and have some more WWDC updates available there as well.

That “I” being me of course.

After the WWDC08 keynote concluded, Jason followed a crowd of people and managed to grab this picture.

I didn’t get a chance to speak with him, or even shake his hand, but a picture is nice.

I’m at Apple’s 2008 WWDC!

Above is a picture of my badge Apple supplied. Head over to my other site OS X 411 for a live blog of the Keynote as well as more WWDC08 updates.

I’m preparing for Apple’s 2008 WWDC by getting a laptop (a MacBook Air). Its not my first mac laptop, before it I owned a 12″ PowerBook G4 (which happened to be my second mac), although I got rid of it when I got a 15″ MacBook Pro, which was my primary computer for some time. I got rid of the MacBook Pro when Leopard was released and picked up a Mac Pro. Since then I have been laptopless/without a laptop. The MacBook Air has from what I have seen so far, made a great second computer.

For those wondering, I picked up a 1.6Ghz with the 64Gb SSD, I’m hoping to get maximum battery life out of it. Also, check out either of my two other blogs, OS X 411 and MacBook 411 for stuff I post specific to the MacBook Air (or other macs).

As I’ve said earlier in another post about WWDC08, I will be going to this years WWDC under Apple’s Student Scholarship program. A friend of mine is also going, I should mention him because he made the graphic below. Thanks Jason.

It also appears that WWDC08 is now sold out, as Apple’s own WWDC site suggests. Hopefully Apple won’t sell the student tickets .

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to update my site to say I got accepted by Apple in the WWDC08 Student Scholarship Award. I got an email today, April 30th, 2008 at 9:38:14PM EDT with a code to activate the E-ticket. Good luck to those who applied and are on Apple’s waiting list. For those who were accepted: I look forward to meeting you.

Robert

I don’t find much time to post anything on my blog anymore. School has just ended and I hope to do more web related stuff over the summer. I’ve got another blog, OS X 411 (OSX411.com), where I post information related to Apple’s Mac OS X operating system and other goodies dealing with Macs. While I’m talking about OS X 411 and Apple, I should mention that I’m planning on attending Apple’s WWDC 08 in June, hopefully as a student.
