A bunch of us thought that autumn in Chicago wouldn't be right without a conference. Follow @secondconf on twitter for conference announcements, we expect to have more news very soon, and save the date: October 22-24 We're just waiting to firm up the final speakers before announcing all the details (so the deadline for BlitzTalks on the site is wrong, don't worry). However, if people have ideas for BlitzTalks we are accepting them right now, email blitz@secondconf.com (20 slides @ 15 seconds each). Hi,

Macoun is more developer/indie style, iPhoneDevCon is more marketing-focused. For your German readers, there’s:

Macoun, Oct 2-3, Frankfurt: http://macoun.de/
iPhoneDevCon, Dec 1-2, Cologne: http://iphonedevcon.de/

I suspect that's the intended behavior. A classic case of an ambiguous UI which means one thing to the developers and a completely different thing to the users.

In fact, most software was static as well. Now what we're seeing online is an incredible richness of interactivity...of spaces, planes, and time. The iOS apps often epitomize these types of interactions, and desktop apps like Adobe Lightroom try to create a similar experience. It seems desktop apps are now static, flat experiences in comparison, and I think this is one way they may evolve to keep pace with iOS devices and RIAs in general.
