Comment (16)We rack up the frequent flyer miles at Light Reading. This year, I criss-crossed the United States (as far east as Chicago, at least) and wore a groove through the middle of California with frequent trips to San Francisco and Silicon Valley from my San Diego home base.
Here's some of what I saw before, after and between my conferences and meetings of 2015.
Historic Computer
The Telecom Council's TC3 Summit in August was in the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif. I snuck out to tour the museum, which includes a fully functional and complete IBM 1401 mainframe computer, announced 1959.
Highlights from my 2015 conferences:
- Cookie Lickers, Headless Chickens & Other Open Source Troublemakers
- 'Community First' Drives Open Source Success
- Networks Are Like Mullets
- Google: 'Great' Data Center Networks Essential
- Why So Many SDN Groups?
- Open Compute Project Hits Critical Mass
