For me, PolyConf is a bit like the Strange Loop of Europe, which is one of the highest compliments possible for a conference. * It was well organized * Had quite a range of topics on interesting topics that poked you right in the intellectual curiosity * Had an audience that was eager to talk about esoteric ideas, but still able to bring it back to a semi-pragmatic form - rare to be able to walk those lines * Just a lot of fun Usually I'm quite exhausted after conferences, but I came away from Polyconf feeling energized about programming, creating (and destroying), and exploring in a way I hadn't for quite awhile - highly recommended!
