2008 ESRI Developer Summit (DevSummit)

I went to Palm Springs to attend the 2008 ESRI Developer Summit (DevSummit) this week March 16-20. This is the first time I attended developer summit, and the first time to the United States.

The conference provided tons of information through various sessions. I really enjoyed it.

Session details can be found at the following link. Some powperpoints have been available to download:

Since I am not a developer, I really do not have too much interest in those technically detailed coding sessions. But I had the chance to talk with ESRI product engineers and developers about my problems and concerns. They were happy to help and log my issues. Another good thing I enjoyed is the chance to meet those GIS professionals from all over the world and chat about what they are doing with ESRI products.

I liked the Microsoft SQL Server session, which was informative, vivid, interesting, beers, T-shirts, one of the best session I ever had.
