March 2008 Preview: Exciting Times for Bug Labs
March is looking to be an exceptionally busy month for Bug Labs, as we set off for a series of conferences and events in the lead up to the BUG launch.
To start, we'll be at the O'Reilly ETech Conference in San Diego next week, where Peter will be delivering a keynote on the morning of Wednesday, March 5, on "Personalizing the Device". The following week, we'll be at SXSW in Austin, where Peter will be delivering another presentation on Monday, March 10, this time on "Hardware Mashups: Introducing the Long Tail of Gadgets". (UPDATE: On the evening of Wednesday, March 12, Jeremy will be speaking at eComm 2008, taking place at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View.)
Bug Labs software gurus, Ken and Angel, will be at EclipseCon in Santa Clara on Wednesday March 19, discussing the development of the BUG platform in "BUG: A Customizable Hardware and Software Platform using Linux, Java, and OSGi". And to close off March in style, Ken will be at the Internet of Things 2008 in Zurich on Thursday, March 27, participating in the session on "The Software Fabric for the Internet of Things".
And finally, March 17 is the day we've all been waiting for - Lá Fhéile Pádraig, commonly known as Saint Patrick's Day. On this day, we celebrate in the streets in commemoration of Saint Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. (We should also mention that is the day BUG finally ships. If you haven't ordered yours yet, you can do so now in the online store).
You can follow our updates online via Twitter, Jaiku, and Facebook, and we'll be posting reminders and updates here on BUG blogger.
Hey don't forget eComm from 12-14th March in San Jose!
