As a first-time attendee I wasn't quite sure what to expect from YOW! 2013. Seeing the range of speakers scheduled to be part of this, and having heard some good comments from previous years' participants, I jumped at the opportunity to be there. It feels good being surrounded by peers that share similar passions to yourself. Attending regular local meetups I've realized how much can be learned by simply sharing knowledge gained through experiences. It was great to see some of the folks that help organize these recurrent local events getting involved and lending a hand at larger events like YOW! Kudos to them! In this post I will discuss some of the themes and talks that were of particular interest to me.
