Yahoo! Store Meeting (August 2005)

It was great to be back in Sunnyvale, California visiting Yahoo! for what has become an annual Yahoo! Store Developers meeting. I was joined by fellow All Webbers Michael Roebuck and Kelly Wilson, in addition to Yahoo! Store gurus Rob Snell, David Burke, and Michael Whitaker.

Pretty similar to that of last year, we toured the campus and found ourselves shopping in the gift store. However, this year Yahoo! had a few things planned. After an hour or so on campus, the Yahoo! Store division sat us down in one of their massive meeting rooms and proceeded to share with us a few of their future projects. Afterwards, we all went out for dinner and drinks... a truly great time.

Dinner and Drinks With Yahoo! Store Developers
