You can't miss the store located in the middle of the TechExpo in Hall D between the game zone and the digital wall.

Does this mean that even expo-only attendees can purchase one?

How to improve Ping? I don't know, but something involving cheevos would certainly help.

Lars' is demeanor is one of defensiveness about Dart. I get the sense that he believes TypeScript to be a threat to the success of Dart.

He left?

Being a gentleman, I closed my eyes. I swear!

@Laura: What did you say at 6:19? "something, it's a big ping part" ?

That's nothing. I once heard Laura drop the f-bomb.

Paul performs an illusion at 9:53.

This is really cool. Now Microsoft just need to make sure they update Bing Maps. It is embarrassing that when in Dublin, I search for O'Connel Street in my WP7 and I am taken to somewhere in Nebraska. Had to install a gMap app to be able to get around here. Tsk, tsk 

That's funny. When I do a Bing Maps search on "O'Connel [sic] Street", I get taken right to Dublin. "O'Connell Street" also takes me to Dublin. I when I do a search on "O'Connell Street Nebraska", I get taken to "NE Oconnell Rd, Cameron, MO". Maybe you're on a different version of Bing Maps than everybody else because there doesn't seem to be any "O'Connel Street" or "O'Connell Street" in the state of Nebraska on the version of Bing Maps that I'm using.

I guess when you're in the checkout line, you should always let Paul cut in front of you.

BTW, here is a story about some kids that won a scholarship for $100K (split between the two) for their project using Kinect to analyze human gait.

However, the big story is the young woman who won the individual $100K prize for her project involving nanotechnology for the cure of cancer. Big whoop, huh?
