OSCON Kinda Sucked

Besides a handful of interesting talks, mostly by Google employees, OSCON just didn't have the energy I found at SXSW Interactive this year. With the steep registration price, most of the interesting people were excluded, leaving mostly corporate sponsored techies in attendance. Also annoyingly, time slots either had many interesting talks simultaneously, or none. I didn't get a sense that the sessions I missed were recorded. Sadly, the one I would choose to attend nearly always turned out to be lame.
