This past January I attended my first CodeMash in Sandusky, Ohio. This upcoming January, I will be attending my second CodeMash, but unfortunately it most likely will not be as sweet as my first.
CodeMash 2012 has proven to be immensely popular. Tickets for the 1,200-person conference sold out in just twenty minutes. Luckily myself and everyone at work got tickets. Not so lucky: my chances of staying at Kalahari during the conference. The hotel was completely booked just hours after the tickets went on sale, and I was unable to get a room for the entire stay. Instead I will be staying outside of Kalahari (probably just commuting, to be honest), which ruins the best part of the CodeMash experience.
Waking up in my own private hotel room at 7am, stumbling from my room to a CodeMash breakfast buffet, then returning for a quick shower... this was the best part of my first CodeMash. I will definitely miss the comfort and convenience of staying at Kalahari this year.
Despite this minor setback, I am looking forward to the conference. January cannot come soon enough.
