CopperaCon, Day 1
Sep. 3rd, 2010 11:30 pmHola all,
I'm writing now before heading to bed after the first day of CopperCon. Or possibly Day Zero since it's pre-reg only. (BTW, as a complete aside, I think the 'trackpad on/off button is one of the best ideas I've heard of. When you're typing a lot on a laptop it's nice to be able to temporarily switch off the trackpad so you don't nudge it with a finger and suddenly find yourself typing on a new line. -- I know I saw a way to set Linux to automatically turn off the trackpad while the keyboard is in use, I need to look that up).
Watched a couple of panels, went out to dinner with some authors and assorted lackeys, henchmen, and minions. And now I'm going to try actually getting a full nights sleep to continue starting off the convention on the right foot. Sadly wireless signal in this room is pretty 'meh'.
