This is my first time at OOW. I am taking the Xtreme
class on Rac during the weekend. The 1 hours sessions
look awesome as do the mini demos, etc.
I will report back afterwards ... If the one hour
session are good, I plan on buying the $75.00 dvd
package which has all the presentation on them.
The keynote presentations don't interest me at all. I
am trying to schedule thing during that time which I
am finding hard to do. There are also alot of side
things to do.. There is a vendor presentation on
Monday night and there is an Apps meeting Monday
morning.
To get the most of it... I am trying to schedule
everything. I wish the scheduler would let you select
alternate sessions.
I would like to be able to have handy alternates if
1) my gets cancelled or
2) It isn't good
so I can slip into another session that might be more
focused at my companies needs.
Otherwise this year looks awesome to me. They even
have were you can schedule a one on one consult with
oracle. This is normally a $500/hour!
There are also hands on labs...
So I can't see how this isn't worth it... Unless you
just go there to party and pick up freebies... Which I
can see happening with alot of people.
Just my 2.5 cents worth
Kathy
BTW.... has any settle if any of us are getting
together or not? Sunday works for me.
