I had a fun evening tonight at the FB Dev Garage in the San Francisco Hyatt Regency near the Embarcadero. You know you’re in the right place when a Ukrainian sits down in the seat next to you and you happen to sell Ukrainian Folk Music! It’s true!
Overall, it was a great event and networking opportunity. I’m really excited about Facebook Connect now that I now what it’s all about and I’m going to start using social analytic service Kontagent first thing tomorrow at work! Here’s a full list of speakers from the night. It would be interesting to take a class with Andreas Weigend in the future. He “gets it”.
