I'm in PyCon for the first time (and first developer conference), and I'm curious as to what is the best way to take advantage of a conference like PyCon and this conference in specific.
Also, if any of you are interested in meeting I'll be happy to share a beer or two.
One of the presenters, Al Sweigart, wrote a post about getting the most out of PyCon: "How to Do PyCon (or any tech conference)" [0].
The biggest takeaways are to meet strangers / community members and find a way to connect with them. I keep a Twitter list [1] for this and you can subscribe to it too.
