Counting down to Web Directions ‘06

September 20, 2006 | 3 Comments

With only seven days until I fly to Sydney, saying I’m mildly excited about the (at least) two day long onslaught of presentations and festivities that is Web Directions would be an understatement in the extreme.

Last year’s Web Essentials conference was a fantastic experience; an event that will keep a code monkey happily tap-tap-tapping away at a keyboard for another ~360 days awaiting the chance to do it all again. The presentations were an invigorating mix of education and inspiration – enough inspiration to be assured the extra effort of developing with standards is worth it and enough education to to go home wanting to rethink just about every project you’re working on (*sigh*).

To help everyone attending to keep track of the people they meet and the social events associated with WD’06, Tim and Cameron have put together just what every web conference needs – a Web2.0 app to call its very own – Web Connections. It’s got folksonomies, it’s got Google Maps integration, it’s got flickr account integration, it’s even got a gradient or two and some rounded corners for good measure. If you’re attending WD’06, hurry up and create your Web Connections account.

Apparently there are still a few tickets left, but be quick!
