Defcon 19
Over the past couple of months I have been very busy with a new job and school. Originally, I did not think I would be able to make it to Defcon 19. The closer and closer it came to Defcon I felt the need to attend, even after I canceled my original flight and hotel reservations. The week of Defcon I gave in and got a flight to Las Vegas and a hotel room at Bally’s since the rooms at the Rio by then were highly over priced coming in at $364 a night wow, Bally’s was a lot more reasonable at $130 a night. So I got the flight the room all squared away, woke up on Friday morning at 6am to go to work until 5pm head to Logan airport and catch my 7:55pm flight to vegas. I was TIRED…. It was an awesome weekend full of great talks, people, and of course drinking =) Overall, I really enjoyed all the talks I attended however, one stood out for me. It was @iiamit talk about botnets over VOIP, it was incredible. Other than that I took a few pictures while at defcon, to warn you I am not a photographer and don’t take pictures every step I take so I just have a few. On Sunday evening I was at the LV airport waiting for my red-eye back to Boston, and I got word my flight was delayed an hour and a half. I was pissed since I had to go straight back to work once my flight landed, I was hungover, tired, and probably smelled bad by the time I got to work on Monday. I put in my eight hours drove home and went right to sleep for the whole night. Next con on deck is DerbyCon for me and I am very excited about this new conference it looks awesome already =)
