Jolt Awards
I attended my first Jolt Awards this year as a spectator, after 3 years as a judge. I’m happy that Iron Python was a Jolt Finalist this year, and that the Data Dude was a Jolt winner (an old friend of mine, Jason Clark, was a key driver behind that product).
I had a brief fanboy moment when I was introduced to Craig Newmark, the founder of the venerable Craigslist. He was a very nice and humble guy. It turned out that he was at the conference because he was one of the co-presenters for the Jolt Awards:

Duuude. I wish I had known you were at SD West. I didn't stay for the Jolt awards, but I was there for the David Platt Keynote just prior.

Sorry - I've been neglecting the self-promotion thing these days! FWIW I was there < 24 hours - I flew in, did my talk, and flew back out.
