Been awhile since I've posted. That whole work thing will get in the way of that on occasion.
Anyway for people heading to Oracle World .
I'll be helping run the APEX hands on lab.
S298611, 10:30 - 11:30 at Golden Gate A2, Marriott
Hands-on Lab: Extending the Oracle Application Express Framework with Web 2.0
and also will have my very own session
S298613, 17:30 - 18:30 at Salon 14/15, Marriott
Web 2.0 Development with Oracle Application Express
Past that I will be ducking in and out of sessions and unconference events as well as working the APEX booth (by far my favorite part of Oracle World).
I'm pretty excited about this years Oracle World as APEX seems to be , is ;) , huge this year.
I'll be posting updates here on http://twitter.com/carlback and on http://friendfeed.com/carlback so feel free to follow along I'll do my best to keep everyone in loop.
If your at Oracle World please stop by the APEX booth and say hello, and if your not feel free to send me questions through the above service , or http://mix.oracle.com and I'll do my best to answer them or corner someone that can.
P.S. You know it's going to be a long week when Raj calls me up because he heard a rumor I'm already in SF ;) watch that guy he's trouble, but his session will be awesome!!!!
Well I haven't even made it through Kaleidoscope yet and Oracle World isn't 'just' right around the corner but things are starting to move along. Last year introduced the Unconference of which I'm a huge fan.
This year you get the chance to suggest and vote on mix.oracle.com for sessions to be included in at OOW.
You can read more about it here and here.
Lets see some APEX specific sessions anybody have any ideas?
Well if you didn't know Oracle is a Platinum Sponsor of Web 2.0 Expo, here's the page on the Oracle Wiki.
The interesting part to this story, for me, is that Oracle has a booth that will be showcasing different ways that Oracle leveraging the Web 2.0 technologies/techniques/philosophies , and Application Express is one of those technologies, and I get to run the Application Express part of the booth!
There is will be unconference type discussions at the booth, and considering how the OOW unconference saved me before I'm looking forward to doing another one.
Between the people behind AppsLab and mix.oracle.com , XML DB , Semantic Web and more it looks like it will be very interesting conference, even if I just circle the Oracle booth all day, which of course I won't how else will I be able to ......... borrow some new good ideas :).
If your going stop by and say hello.
Fair warning to people that don't know about my booth skills, don't slow down by me and look interested , confused or ask for directions. If you do your going to get a 5 min APEX demo and then there will be another life long APEX developer.
Plus since it is in SF at some point I get to go to one of my favorite restaurants in the world, House of Nanking
