SFO airport adventures
It took me just under five minutes to signup for a T-mobile hotspot account, so I could send my mail. Username already chosen, form resets itself. Find credit card, re-enter information. Submit. Need to fill in the expiry date (which displays fine). Form resets. Repeat.
Funny that the immigration official today at SFO had heard of both Linux and MySQL. He’s apparently some form of online gamer, and has written a few PHP apps himself. I was, to say the least, highly impressed.
Something I noticed as funny. All the baggage carousels had Oracle ads. Must be something Oracle related happening here…
Anyways, I’m still waiting for Arjen to come out. Stewart I know is already at the hotel, and JD should arrive in due time. In the meantime, I’ll attend to mail, and upload Flickr photos at 250KB/s (yes, a marked improvement from the 30KB/s cap I have at home in Australia).
Yo. We should hookup for beer sometime with Stewart now that you’re in the valley…

Haha, immigration was fun.
Standing in line for over half an hour for a one minute interview, passing right through customs because of nationality etc..
We (me and a colleague) are at the Hyatt right now; if you wanna come over for a beer, head up to room 937.
Rocking Mikal. We already have hooked up :-)
@Oscar: yeah, immigration was surprisingly short when I arrived. I was amazed. Sorry, all beer-ed out for the day, but I’m sure you’ll find us around tomorrow
