Upcoming Conferences

I just wanted to let anyone interested know about some upcoming conferences I'll be speaking at...

Droidcon London
London, October 24-27th
Crafting Unique, Delightful Apps (9:45 AM, Thursday, October 24th)

I'll be giving this talk in conjunction with our awesome designer, Chris Arvin.  To be honest, 45 minutes is hardly enough time to talk about all the things we could, but I'll be around all week long to talk more.

I'm also planning on attending the hackathon that weekend.  I've never done a hackathon before so it should be fun.  My only concern is that I have zero interest in staying up all night coding.  I think 8 hours of sleep (and some mental rest) is far more valuable than being drained all Sunday.

AnDevCon
San Francisco, November 12-15th
I Can Animate and So Can You (8:30 AM, Friday, November 15th)

I've started embracing animations in the last year in a way I never had before.  I regarded them as chunky and painful, which was true back in the days of 1.x and 2.x, but that's no longer the case.  It's possible to make really awesome animations now but it's still difficult to fit them into your app's structure.  This talk is designed to get you to think about how to do advanced animations in your app.

I also have a discount code for AnDevCon.  It'll knock $200 off registration.  Just use the code "LEW".

Upcoming Talks: AnDevCon III and Mobile March 3D

I'm going to be speaking at AnDevCon III!  My talk is called "Don't Make Me Repeat Myself: Tips and Tricks to Avoid Code Duplication and Increase Code Reuse on Android".  You can find a long description of it here.

If you register, you can use my last name ("LEW") as a $200 off coupon.  This coupon should be valid all the way up till the conference.  Also, if you register before March 2nd you get some pretty deep discounts.

I'm slated to give a demo version of this talk at the April AUG.MN meetup (April 3rd), if you happen to be near the Twin Cities.

I thought I'd also mention that I'm going to be briefly demoing Mobiata's apps at Mobile March's 3D event.   I'll also be helping out with the Android workshop on Friday.  Say hello if you happen to see me around.
