This is a small list of stuff I learned at YAPC::EU 2010 in Pisa.

• I can blog here at blogs.perl.org
• I need to look at Try::Tiny. It's supposed to be (exceptionally) good at handling exceptions
• The WWW::Mechanize::Firefox talk by Max Maischein should have been a bit longer. Max said he used RT for support questions and bug reports
• The bars in Pisa close early and without any warning
• People compile and install their own perl instead of using the version that comes with the OS
• A lot of people use FastCGI instead of mod_perl. FastCGI has a X-Sendfile feature
• I need to take a look at AnyEvent http://search.cpan.org/dist/AnyEvent/
• I need to take a look at CPAN Minus (cpanm)
• I need to take a look at Varnish http://varnish-cache.org/ for ESI and caching
• I need to take a look at Splunk http://www.splunk.com/ for log handling
• I need to take a look at MogileFS http://code.google.com/p/mogilefs/
• Task::Kensho http://search.cpan.org/~apeiron/Task-Kensho/ contains a number of modules which are recommended by mst and other CPAN/perl celebs
• Norweigan has a direct connection from Copenhagen to Pisa
• Gitalist is a better web front end to git http://www.gitalist.com/
• The food in Pisa is excellent
• Perlbrew sounds like an interesting project
