OOW Highlights and bye bye SF

For me, being for the 2nd time in America and the 1st at OOW, the highlights of this week:

• Landing in San Francisco... oh! almost in the water
• First meeting and drinks with John Scott... a really nice guy
• Seeing SF city in a complete Oracle oasis... such a big city with Oracle everywhere
• First time OOW registration... so many registration desks
• First meeting with the APEX SIG panel... really nice people
• Apex Sig panel... telling my experience with APEX and answering questions for many people at OOW
• The Benelux Cocktailparty... enjoying together with my ex-colleagues and (ex-)customers
• The Blogger Meetup... good time with my "virtual friends"
• Appreciation Night... Elton and good food
• Presentations of Tom Kyte... enjoyable to listen to
• First presentation of and meeting with Jonathan Lewis... so much knowledge
• Keynote speech of Larry Ellison... Unbreakable Linux
• Oracle Database 11g... new features, even better
• APEX meetup... being together with the developers of my favorite toy: APEX
• Sight seeing with John... Alcatraz, Pier 39, boat, hills, ...

I'm going for my last sleep in San Francisco (for this year ;-)) ...
Thank you SF, Oracle and all the people I met... I really enjoyed it!
