I didn’t see a consolidated location for pictures taken by visitors (vs. Booth folks) So I am going to post these here. Then folks that are also attending can add more to this thread.
First and foremost I’d like to thank @bailey for tossing tickets our way. Super cool and thoughtful of you guys. It was well worth the trip to come visit and talk for a bit. Even if it was about printing postcards and the crazy discounts that these online vendors give.
And secondly, @dan. I don’t think he noticed but he actually scared the crap out of me because he gave me a ninja spring attack hug. He was out of my peripheral and I hear ‘HEY!’ and got a hug off to my left. lol. I’ve dealt with a lot of company’s doing hardware beta tests and what not. But I’ve never really got gone beyond the PR person. Sometimes a person in Engineering. But to know the CEO (And them knowing your name)? And get pounce attack hugs? That’s pretty damn cool.
Anyway- This is a mix of DSLR pictures and from my phone. I realized I should have brought my polarizer for my big camera after the first couple pics. Sorry about that. Anywho- Here you go.
There was a lot of chaos around the booths, So It was hard to tell who was who.
I realized afterward that I’d only taken one picture all day. It’s the next thing on my aspiration list, now that my dream has come true and I have my own laser cutter.
I did. She was busy with a couple of folks each time I went by. But I did chat a little with her husband/partner/large guy who was also fielding questions. We talked a little about a game board holder for game pieces and the house & stained glass samples she had and the corresponding YouTube videos she did.
Yeah, most of the CEOs I know are business specialists (all about finance & marketing). Dan was good enough to chat a bit after his presentation yesterday about how they had hooked up the PC & large screen display because I’m looking for ideas for the local MakerFaire I’m exhibiting at. Most CEOs I know, even of tech companies, don’t know anything about HDMI switches or simple direct connection and task switching in Windows
What the what?! Seriously, just go binge the entire show. It’s only 2 seasons. Just go do it. It’s got it all… mystery, romance, sci-fi, comedy, horror… did I miss anything? Oh, yes… a pig named Waddles.
