See you in London
I’ve been waiting for a while to announce that I’ll be traveling to London in June for the next Yahoo! Open Hack Day!
The last Open Hack Day was epic. I had way too much fun giving my talk, helping out developers and getting my hands dirty. This Open Hack Day promises to be twice as epic simply because of the location (London, which I’ve always wanted to visit) and the setting (Alexandra Palace). I’ve been asked, once again, to come and give a talk about the Yahoo! Mail Web Service. Last time I gave an overview of the API, which was nice since the web service was entirely new at the time. But now that it’s officially released, I think I’m going to come loaded up with some sample applications that show the power of the platform.
I’m also heading to London early. I’m thinking about working a day or two in the Yahoo! London office and then taking a couple of days before Open Hack Day to check out London since I’ve never been. If you have recommendations of places to check out and things to do, lay them on me. If you’re in London and want to hook up, let me know. If you’re thinking about coming to Open Hack Day and need a spare programmer, I’d love to make my services available (especially if you want to hack on Yahoo! Mail!!!).
Anyway, it’s going to be awesome, so get your arse there. The sign up form is at the usual place.

Looking forward to share some experiences with you there. I’m going too. I’m the email guy here at Portugal Telecom - SAPO (http://mail.sapo.pt) and we’re also building some webservices around email.
