Some Nice Cheat Sheets
I just found this site while looking for phpDocs cheat sheet. Though this particular one lacks a phpDocs cheat sheet (I did find one), there is some interesting ones here, and all pretty high quality. Enjoy!

I was very impressed. Thanks to all the people, and sponsors that were part of this great day. It was such a great environment to share, and I really got the sense that there was a community vibe. There was a great energy, and anticipation when we showed up, and I was not let down. The sessions I took part in were as follows:
- Angel investors presenting what they are about, and what they look for. This was really cool, as these were some of the group that funded nexopia.com.
- U of A Aerial Robotics Club.
- Fundamental Programming Skills vs Framework Knowledge.
- Accessibility & Usability For Disabled.
- How to ‘be’ a Contractor.
- Emerging Mobile Platforms.
- Zero Budget Marketing.
- Analytics: How it can help.
Probably some of the highlights for me were the angel investor group, the zero budget marketing, and of course the endless supply of beer, and wi-fi.

I can hardly wait. I missed the last one, and I’ve been really hoping there will be something there to inspire me. I think I would be equally inspired if the place was filled with balding middle aged internet marketers that are impressed by the latest CMS, because it will totally make their Web 2.0 internet millions a reality </sarcasm>. Ugh… because I know there is always a handful of those types that go to anything where they can… “network”.
Maybe I’m just not super convinced yet that anyone who is actually innovating are super excited to share what they are working on. I guess we’ll see though. I have hopes that it will be a very productive day. I’ll post again Tomorrow if there is anything worth sharing.
