I didn't do the workshops last year. The conference is fantastic: the buzz, the networking, the discussions around food and icecream and coffee, all amazing!
My big take away from last year is that all the technology is great and improving and fun, but we do this because we love it, and if we're doing it right, we're changing the lives of other people, specifically our users, for the better. I know that sounds very common sense, but it was reinforced to me in like eight different ways.
