In July 2018, I attended An Event Apart DC. This was one of their “special edition” three-day conferences, so lots and lots of notes follow. (Note: the notes were captured in Twitter so may load slowly. Veerrrryyyy slowly. There’s a PDF link on each page to help mitigate that problem and/or provide access to the tweets even if the tweets are deleted later. Yay crowdsourcing!)
