As I wrap up here at Astricon 2009, I thought I’d post some of my thoughts on the event.
First of all, the Digium folks did a great job this year on gathering speakers, developing content, and they certainly know how to have a good time! On Wednesday, I mostly stayed on the Cloud track, and other than one presentation that I think was aimed at the wrong audience, I learned quite a few things. The Xen talk given by Saghul certainly gave me quite a few ideas, including a great idea on virtualized hosted PBX systems.
Wednesday night, I hooked up with the crew from Digium and had a blast! From celebrating Steve’s birthday at Margaritaville to watching multiple Digium employees (try to) ride a mechanical bull (video coming soon, check back for updates!), these guys know how to have a good time!
Thursday I floated between the Commerce tracks and the Tech Talks. The Intuit Innovations presentation on the Asterisk cluster they built for the American Army in Iraq was one that seemed to impress everyone in the room. Entertaining and informative, Dr. Daniel Ali Aman was one of my favorite speakers at the entire event!
All-in-all, I’ve had a great time these past few days. I’ve made quite a few contacts, picked up a lot of product literature from the exhibition hall, and learned some new things all at the same time. Thanks Digium for a successful Astricon 2009, and here’s looking forward to Astricon 2010!

Thanks for the concepts you have provided here. Additionally, I believe there are some factors which really keep your car insurance policy premium down. One is, to take into account buying motors that are from the good listing of car insurance firms. Cars which might be expensive are usually more at risk of being stolen. Aside from that insurance is also based on the value of your truck, so the higher priced it is, then higher this premium you only pay.
