Southern California Linux Expo Recap

The 8th annual Southern California Linux Expo or SCaLE was this past weekend. The event was great; I found it informative, there were some really interesting booths set up in the expo halls, LA Drupal came ready with the Drupal forces at their own booth, and the people I met were awesome.

A couple days before the event, I saw some tweets about it and decided it would be interesting to go. It was completely a spur of the moment thing, and would turn out to be my first conference that wasn't focused solely on Drupal (except ComicCon...). With that, I didn't know what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised at how it turned out.
