<div class="gmail_quote"><div>I, too, enjoyed this year's SCALE. I went on Friday to the Women in Open Source conference and on Saturday. Some of the talks were great, others less so, but I made a couple of good networking connections. I'm looking forward to the notes and possibly videos from the talks I didn't attend.<br>

wait for the Westin Shuttle service at LAX. On Sunday<br>I took the Hilton shuttle and walked...<br>(Gold line to Union Station, and then the LAX flyer<br>ran $5.25 and was quick enough.. ) Next time the<br>trick maybe to take the thrifty car rental shuttle<br>
(adjacent to the Westin)<br></blockquote><div><br>That was also my experience when I took the Westin shuttle from the airport on Friday. On Saturday I took the 439 bus from Union Station. It was about the same amount of time as the Flyaway+shuttle, but I didn't have to wait a long time for the bus (good timing, I guess). <br>
<br>While waiting in line at Subway behind one of the organizers, I heard that next year they plan to move the conference to a bigger location, either in the same area or downtown.<br><br>Shang-Lin<br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
