What Happens in Vegas …
Posted by Melanie Phung on Monday, November 13, 2006 at 1:33 pm
I’m off to Las Vegas this week to attend the PubCon conference, where I look forward to learning new stuff, meeting some cool people, and enjoying warmer weather than DC is currently experiencing.
Hope to see some of you there!
Hi Jaimie - I didn’t know you used to work for RustyBrick. Another reminder that this world is actually pretty small.
I think your topic proposal is a great idea. Very few hackers/black-hatters will share their dirty tricks, and most people never consider that they might be getting sabotaged.
[Here's one that looks really easy I might want to try out:

However, I think the population of attendees at SES or PubCon tends to be overwhelmingly smaller businesses, so I’m not sure that this would be a priority issue for a lot of them. But Brett or Danny would know that sort of thing better than I, of course.
Melanie, what do you think of this for a future PubCon segment?

Of course I think like a hacker …
