This is my USENIX 2002 Annual Technical Conference journal. There are two ways to read it:
You can go to the index of the notes which I took while attending the tutorials and technical sessions. If you're looking just for the technical information, then the notes are all you need.
You can read my day-by-day journal. The day-by-day journal contains the notes which I took while attending the tutorials and technical sessions. However, the day-by-day journal also contains a record of my activities: where I went, what I saw, what I ate (including reviews), et. al. This information is primarily for my own record, but others may find it interesting/useful.
