A tipster emails from the Future of Web Apps conference in Miami with a Julia Allison and Kevin Rose sighting. Guess that Pownce invite worked on Julia. The conference was described by one attendee as "basically a war between PHP and Ruby on Rails." Well, it seems like some are having a good time. Check out the tipster's email and full-size pics below, enhanced slightly for clarity.
Basically, they've been all over each other the entire time here. A friend almost got a pic of the two walking together alone but came out too dark to tell what was going on. We did see them walking alone to the beach though. The club/cafe Nikki Beach in South Beach has been their breeding ground. Ask anyone who's been there for the beach party and they'll likely confirm.
Kevin and Julia.

where's the other alien looking one? is she only stuck with the older ones because of her daddy issues?
Tell her to wait another year. A good recession ought to kill Digg.
I guess Kevin Diggs Jakob's (and lord know's who elses) sloppy seconds.
I always pegged him (Kevin) as a smarter bloke. I guess his penis is running that show!
Can someone tell me why Meghan Asha and Julia allison attend technical conferences that are clearly over their heads. Yet they have no technical knowledge beyond iPhones and Mac OSX?? I don't get it. They aren't web developers or programmers or anything...
Slutty.
That last picture totally isn't her
"In red" girl doesn't look like her...
@c0d3w12:
i am so happy for Caroline!
@Figaro: Dit-tow!!
Do they have fitness facilities in SF?
She is 27, and if she fails to marry up soon, she risks entering her impending irrelevance without funding.
I never figured Kevin Rose for the Psycho Hose Beast loving type. I guess we will see Julia harrassing the Digg and Pownce staff and stalking him as soon as he dumps her.
I totally misread the headline - I thought it said "banging" instead of "hanging". I figure it's the same thing though....
It's a shame I missed this, as it's pretty close to where I am.
By a shame, I mean, there was no one there worth listening to with the exception of Ed Burns and the wordpress guy. I wonder if I can simulate the awkwardness of some of these people coming down here and interacting with us locals by mixing some margaritas and bringing students from ITT Tech to a Magic the Gathering competition.
@The_Age_of_Plastic: She is waiting for Rose to sell Digg.
JA is such a media whore...she has/is always is on every media tech photo and event. and dates whoever techhead she can.
@The_Age_of_Plastic: Well said. Her beauty has been depreciating at an alarming rate. She better find a husband who likes golddiggers fast or she'll miss the train and have to settle for a poor JoeSixpack or some balding ugly rich guy.
@Figaro: I thought the only husbands who liked golddigers were balding ugly rich guys. I certainly never apreciated their limited appeal until I began losing my hair. Where I was once very black and white on the subject, now I see that it is simply a compromise struck between both parties. Sort of like how you'll see morbidly obese couples at the Dennys. Or, well, you would, if you ate at Dennys. Which I hope you don't. Actually, just ignore this entire comment.
Wow, that will suck if those two seriously hook up. Star crap will be on top of DIGG and we'll have to have her in our face 24/7 in the valley now.
vwag: leave kevin alone!
kevin: nice work.
@Dweezil, Cal Henderson's talk was extremely interesting and entertaining (he's truly hilarioius). So was Blaine Cook's.
Geez, am I the only one here who thinks she's attractive? Though I do prefer brunettes, so I'm biased. But the way some folks describe how ugly she is in other articles, they must be going out with supermodels...?
No doubt she's an attention whore, but Rose is probably just checking out what's what. No way it would work since he's based in SF and she's based in NY.
@ZukeZuke. I think she is cute too but I don't understand why the editors here give her so much press.
@AlaskaMiller. I didn't realize Rose was such a big Village People fan.
@ZukeZuke: She's attractive for 36. The problem is.. she's only 27.
Zoo, you must be into 13-year-olds if you think J.A. looks old.
How did I miss this train wreck in my back yard?
I would take Leah over her!
@ZukeZuke: The issue is not one of attraction. She is certainly clinically attractive, as are many an aging party girl on either coast. The issue of annoyance to an increasingly large group of us is that the Gawker media family has made her into a home-grown blog celebrity because she gives good face, which translates to easy page views and ad dollars. This has given her a platform to express opinions which she believes are whitty, insightful or relevant. "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."
I formally declare this will be my last click, and post, on any JA threads which pollute VW and are not kept on Gawker where they rightfully belong. Give me Melissa, Marissa, Rachel or a mirade of others whose appearance is complimented with actual accomplishment.
DECLARE THIS WEEK A "SAY NO TO JULIA" WEEK ON VW. If you feel the need to comment about her, or to reply to me, leave it on a another thread.
@The_Age_of_Plastic: Amen. Wait...
@Alaska Miller: STAR TATTOS!
