I had the pleasure this past week of attending the Great Wide Open conference in Atlanta.   Many thanks to Todd Lewis and the folks at IT-oLogy for inviting me to serve as a volunteer at the conference.    I met a number of really talented and in some cases world-renowned developers.   

I spent most of my time at the registration desk, but found time to get away and see several sessions.  Of course I was most interested in those related to Drupal.  In particular, I was thrilled to hear Jason Smith of MediaCurrent talk about the massive project to replace Weather.com with a Drupal site.   I expect that site to be something really special and something the Drupal community can be proud of.
