Just got done attending the Voices That Matter: Web Design Conference. I had a really good time, very inspiring to see how much the profession has grown up. I might do a more formal write up, but in the mean time, here is my cleaned up twitter stream. I tend to unfollow anyone that does line-by-line reporting of presentations, so I keep it to one or two per session.
