Much has already been said and written about the event in Baltimore yesterday.

- SocialDevCamp East: Awesome People, Awesome Day
I can only say that Dave, Ann, and Keith did an increible job of bring this together in such a short time. I was proud to be able to help sponsor and even more proud to be involved and have such great discussions with all the great people.
It is great to see all the local talent come together, and like Greg said in his post above, there really was an awesome vibe.
I attended the following sessions:
- EC2 and other AWS cloud computing
- Location Based Services
- Twitter/Microblogging
- Washington area startup scene
There was not a bad apple in teh bunch. Great discussions and interaction, I learned a lot.
I met some great people who are working on some really cool things. Mike Subelsky, a Baltimore programmer, is working with an Austin based startup who is in semi stealth mode. Amy Hoy showed us here totally cool “app” called Twistori, giving us a different glimpse into the Twiiter stream.
Also ran into Patti, of 600block
We’re building a new website to help you and your friends find Baltimore’s top restaurants, bars, music, shops, events and more. It’s Baltimore’s best according to the people who live here. Personalize your own page and get cool city picks just for you. Baltimore never looked better.
I am totally looking forward to learning more about them and writing more in depth about what they are doing soon.
Overall, hands down, the best event of my year so far. I cannot wait till the fall and the next iteration.

Cool, really sounds like it was great — was sorry to have to miss it.
Thanks for the link up, Jimmy! We’re working hard on our public release, and look forward to sharing more about 600block on your blog. SocialDevCamp was indeed an amazing event and we’re so glad we went. For those of you who missed it, it sounds like the September one is already in the works - it’s great to see Dave and Ann keep the momentum going!
