explode from all the smart, amazing talks except the one from Tony Blank
@thetonyblank Austin has amazing food Have you seen the food
trucks, dude? You should make your way down to Liberty and try some @EastSideKingATX
@thetonyblank Mark, well, he's the conference chair He comes from
Barcelona He picked the talks, the tracks, the beer the things we're all enjoying here
@thetonyblank Mark, you know, he writes those words about us,
the cool API nerds you know, we think that's pretty rad cause curling's are not a fad
@thetonyblank All the attendees they say Glad we're here on
a Thursday Sure beats sitting at a desk Cause cubes, they are grotesque
@thetonyblank Can't forget about Kin Lane I think we last
hung out in Spain He's dropping bombs with his wisdom About the API systems
@thetonyblank His blog should be no big surprise It's all
about the APIs The only thing I could mention here… He's got an epic beard
@thetonyblank All the attendees they say This talk is weird,
but it's ok Gettin' off the stage is a Tony Thank you for your time....
