the geek shirts of WWDC

WWDC is 5200 geeks all crammed into Moscone West in downtown San Francisco. It's a bit tight at times with so many people, and it makes finding people harder than you might otherwise think, but it all manages.

WWDC is one of the times of the year when the geeks all pull out their best geek shirts to show off to each other. The shirts range from the historical (I've seen several Copland and Dylan shirts) to the esoteric (all sorts of short-lived start-ups) to the amusing (shirts from xkcd and ThinkGeek seem to be the most popular).

As always, Apple made up cool t-shirts for their engineering team. They're bright blue, with a picture of a map with a red pin stuck into it, saying "Apple Engineer". As with their previous shirts, I find myself coveting them even though I only rarely wear geek shirts myself.
