Not a Rock Star, But Rock Star Worthy

Tuesday, July 21, 2009 by Matt Warman

I presented at this year’s JavaOne, and I recently got my results. I presented last year too, and I received my first JavaOne rock star award. Many of my Cincinnati application development colleagues wanted to know if I did it again, and the answer is technically no, but still a good show. JavaOne rock stars are awarded for technical presentations. My presentation was considered a panel discussion, so not eligible for awards. Our panel received a score of 4.68 out of 5.00 by our peers. I personally recieved a nice note for JFrets. Over 90% found our talk useful. The top 25% of talks began at 4.20, so clearly our presenters would have had the rock star status.
I am working on a new project called History Slider, that if in a demo state, I will give a talk on next year. So you may see the JavaOne rock star status by my name once again.
