The second day of the conference was great and a couple of sessions really stood out above the others in my mind....there was a great session in the morning on web part development and some of the new things coming up in that. AJAX is baked into SP now which is great but there is also a bit of a learning curve surrounding XSS and making sure we understand cross-site scripting and how SharePoint really cracks down on this.
There was an amazing session on SharePoints new COM or client object model that exposes all sharepoint objects to the client (.NET CLR, silverlight and javascript). Essentially we will be able to a LOT more work on the client side which makes me feel warm inside.
I finally got to play around with SharePoint 2010 in the labs which was great. I was dying to get a feel for the product because it feels weird listening to all these sessions without actually having your hands on it. I definitely will be spending more time in the labs.
The Huey Lewis and the News Beach Party was a lot of fun but I left there feeling a little...drunk for lack of a better word. Good times in vegas...
