Carl Cravens on his first YAPC

IRC Terminal

This is what I took from YAPC: a real desire to learn Perl at a deeper level. I sat in talks going, "I didn't know that!"

What did my employer get out of YAPC? Well, I'm dedicated to becoming a better Perl programmer, which is a plus for them.

I'm looking forward to YAPC::NA 2008.
