iPhoneDevCamp in Amsterdam was a big success, thanks to our hosts from iCE. The American alumni had an amazing time, and we will be writing more about that later. For now, enjoy this inspirational speech from iPhoneDevCamp sponsor / speaker / alum Mike Lee during the last day of the conference.

Before the clip, Mike tells us that he worked for three days on his slides and then threw them away. Instead he speaks from the heart about the nature of engineering, and the experience of Amsterdam. We pick up with Mike where he starts with task of manifesting cufflinks at 3 o’clock in the morning.

Being an engineer is not necessarily about knowing everything, it’s about knowing how to know everything.

Greetings to all our friends from the Netherlands. We hope to be back soon.

We are delighted to announce that iPhoneDevCamp alumni Joe Pezzillo, Jonathan Wight, Mike Lee, and I (Dom) will be traveling to Amsterdam to produce a one-night iPhoneDevCamp event prior to iCE Amsterdam ‘09.
