Why go to MIX08? It's probably the best Microsoft web conferences on earth (I had a blast last year) and the parties at night are legendary. The below flickr photos are some of my highlights from last year:
A View from my Hotel Room (Bellagio - aka Oceans 11 Hotel)
Ray Ozzie on stage
Some folks from our ANZ region with me outside the Venetian.
Some more folks from our ANZ region with me inside a Stretch Limo (it's cheaper than a taxi so relax expense report people hehe)
The party upstairs at Pure Night Club - Ceasar Palace.
Brian Goldfarb (Group Product Manager) and Aaron Brethorst (ex Program Manager Popfly) enjoying the night out.
Microsoftee's enjoying a limo to an exclusive party, Ryan Stewart taking a snooze (he was blinking)
Shane Morris (UXE) talking to John Udell about how Web 2.0 is evolving
To be continued this year...( I want your photo here please )
