Having a 30" monitor is awesome for web development. I have TextMate for editing the PHP/HTML and CSSEdit for, er, editing the CSS running side by side along with a couple of terminal windows for viewing the apache logs and my FTP and MySQL apps all on screen.
On the other screen I have the various browsers and previews of the code.

André Lhuillier, CSS PhD student. André’s talk entitled “Why Little Samson Didn’t Defeat The Hedgehog: A Story Of Social Influence And The Relevance Of Distribution For Successful Information Goods"
Abstract: In 1992 during one of the fiercest battles of the so called ‘console wars’, a modest game was released in the mist of the industry frenzy. Although ‘Little Samson’ is recognized by those who know it as a great game, it remains unknown for most of the consumers today. On the other side of the battlefield, Sega’s thriving Hedgehog was convincing everyone that they have seized their main competitor ‘Mario Kart’. Despite this momentary victory in consumer’s memory and affection, the real winner was not in the center of the industry’s attention. Having less media presence, the sequel of Super Mario Land for the Game Boy was the most purchased game with almost 200% units of what ‘Sonic 2’ sold. This kind of unpredictable and divergent behavior is a unique characteristic of information goods markets. In this presentation I survey the last 30 years of the video game sector and show its particular composition and evolution. Following De Vany’s approach to Hollywood movie industry I dwell into an analysis of this industry with special emphasis in consumer behavior. Re-visiting De Vany’s proposal I make a simple ABM approach to model and show how placement or distribution properties may induce long tail distributions. Following the relevance of information diffusion and the development of hype in this industry another model is presented. In this case the relevance of a consumer social system and its dynamics. After an analysis of the industry history, consumer’s social influence, sales and distribution/access is reviewed; I present several findings and propose a model to understand them. A final discussion will be opened with the presentation of data on Valve Company digital platform Steam.

We took in a couple of shows at the Bluebird Theatre on Colfax. Did you know that two PBR's is only $7 in Denver? I discovered this many times that night, and for that price I don't blame the hipsters for drinking it.
Ovi Chris Rouly, Ph.D. Candidate,Department of Computational Social Science, George Mason University. Chris’s talk entitled “At The Root Of Sociality: Working Towards Emergent, Permanent, Social Affines"
Abstract: Complexity science often uses generative models to study and explain the emergent behavior of humans, human culture, and human patterns of social organization. In spite of this, little is actually known about how the lowest levels of human social organization came into being. That is, little is actually known about how the earliest members of our hominini tribe transitioned from being presumably small-groups of ape-like polygynous/promiscuous individuals (beginning perhaps with Ardipithecus or Australopithecus after the time of the Pan-Homo split in the late Pliocene to early Pleistocene eras) into family units having stable breeding-bonds, extended families, and clans. What were the causal mechanisms (biological, possibly cognitive, social, and environmental, etc.) that were responsible for the conversion? To confound the issue, it is also possible the conversion process itself was a complex system replete with input sensitivities and path dependencies i.e., a nested complex system. One author has referred to similar processes and their distinctive social arrangements as, “the deep structure of society” (Chapais, 2010). This paper reviews ongoing research attempting to model-then-understand a few of the underlying social, environmental, and biological systems present at the root of human sociality.
