20+ Years of Design, Technology & More
It has been a great Autodesk University this year. Great attendance of over 7000 in person and around 20,000 at AU Virtual, great general session, great keynotes, great classes and speakers, great beer bust, great food, great mixer and social events, and an awesome preview of the upcoming TRON: Legacy movie.
Tonight was a mix of socials and mixers for several groups including the two I attended, the Press & Blogger Social and the AEC Mixer. Both were outstanding and held at the House of Blues located in the Mandalay Bay. The Press & Blogger Social was packed wall to wall with several Autodesk executives, product teams, as well as the industry press and several bloggers. There was great food and drink including the special “desktini”.
At the AEC Mixer about 1200 people were treated to a group of Autodesk employees playing in a band named AEC /DC. The AEC Mixer then headed up 64 floors to the Foundation Club high atop the Mandalay Bay and what a view there was from up there. It was a blast!
The official start of Autodesk University 2010 starts in the morning with the General Session Keynote. Don’t miss this general session as there will be great speakers and technology featured.

We have created a public Flickr group for AU2010 (http://www.flickr.com/groups/au2010/) for sharing photos by Autodesk University 2010 attendees.

Please tag your photo and videos as aulv2010 so that AU Team can also highlight your nice AU photos to other AU attendees.
I just got my “Mastering AutoCAD for the Mac” by George Omura and Rick Graham. The book is published by Wiley & Sons in paperback and weighs in at a healthy 1050 pages. There is a link to a resource website where you can download the exercise files so you can master AutoCAD for Mac. http://sybex.com/go/masteringautocadmac

We are holding the Blogger Social Event once again after a fun and successful event the past 2 years. The event is for bloggers who actively blog on Autodesk product and events not really for blogs about their unicorn training, bacon weaving, or wicked butter carving skills. There will be a large group of bloggers and Autodesk employees attending in this casual social networking environment to place names to faces. Face to Face networking F2F.
If you caught the Avatar preview last year, we have another special treat for AU attendees this year. Cliff Plumer, the Chief Executive Officer of the Academy Award®-winning digital production studio, Digital Domain, will join us and present clips of Walt Disney Pictures’ highly anticipated film TRON: Legacy ahead of the December 17 release date!
