Evaluations
A trait of great speakers is their desire to be constantly improving upon the content and delivery of their
presentations. That isn’t possible without constructive feedback from the people who attend their
sessions. After a session concludes, please consider giving thoughtful feedback to our speakers through
the evaluation site:

Sponsor Bingo
You will find a card in your bag with the logos of all our Gold sponsors. Our sponsors are an essential
part of making Nebraska.Code() a successful event. They have been very generous in their support of
our local developer community, please stop by each one and express your gratitude. When you do, you
will receive a sticker for your Bingo card. Once you have filled the card, return it to the registration desk
with your name and email address on the back. A winner will be drawn from the complete cards and
will be sent contacted about receiving a prize.
Podcasting
We have some great podcasts recording shows at Nebraska.Code() this year. Maybe you’ve heard of
.NET Rocks? On Friday the podcasters will be in the Banquet hall recording shows with our awesome
lineup of speakers. On Saturday, .NET Rocks takes over the Auditorium for most of the day, recoding
some shows on stage.
Saturday Lunch
On Saturday we will have a boxed lunch in the Auditorium while Richard and Carl record yet another
episode of .NET Rocks. While conversation is certainly allowed, please be considerate of the recording
in progress. If you want to engage in conversation rather than listen to the podcast, please sit near the
back of the room.
