Writing @thebook at iPhoneDevCamp

Aug 8, 2009

Speaking, Video

Brian Oberkirch captured a few thoughts about writing “140 Characters” during last weekend’s iPhoneDevCamp in Sunnyvale. Enjoy a nice, brief interview about some of the principles behind the book.

Not only was I organizing iPhoneDevCamp, but I also attempted to finish up the first draft of the book over the weekend. Hectic, but — I finished!

(Note: Of course, in the video, I mean 40,000 words.)
