This week I attended the annual Intel Agile and Lean Development Conference. This is the third time I have attended,1Here’s the post for last year’s Agile/Lean Conference. and IMHO, it was the best by far. The conference was better arranged, having a basic day, an advanced day, and a day of keynotes with industry experts. For the first time, Intel invited members of the community.
Throughout the conference, I took a bunch of notes. These are some of the resources mentioned in the classes and keynotes I attended.
I record them here so I can find them later. Maybe they’ll be useful for you, too.

Here is a link to the Menlo Video.
Nice! Thanks, Chris. Richard Sheridan’s keynote was probably my favorite.
I’ll add the video up in the body of the post.
Ahhh.. I just remembered last year’s conference… so much fun (not just the conference, but also Oregon zoo and Voodoo doughnuts and Papa Haydn :)) Where was it this year… Hillsboro again?
Yeah, last year’s conference was a blast! This year’s (also in Hillsboro) was even better. So good, in fact, that we weren’t tempted to leave for an afternoon of sightseeing and dinner. Or maybe, that was just me.
