O'Reilly ETech 2006
I'll be attending the O'Reilly Emerging Technologies 2006 conference in San Diego, March 6-9. I've been wanting to attend this conference for a while but I finally made time to go this year. Primarily, this is because I've been listening to the podcast of the presentations from the 2005 Conference on the always excellent IT Conversations - so even if you can't attend, you can still learn a lot from the conference. The conference schedule is published as an iCal file so you can subscribe to it using a client like Apple iCal or Mozilla Sunbird and then pick and choose what you want to attend.
Lest you get the impression that I'm some jet setting conference hound, I assure you this is quite a rarity and I spend almost all of my time at my desk writing code! I think the last conference I went to was BloggerCon III. At any rate, if you're going to be ETech and want to talk about Collaboration, I'd be interested in talking to you.

This will be my third in a row. It is quite a challenge to get through the day without having your brain explode.
Yes, the schedule looks fairly non-stop and there are a lot of presentations I want to see that are on at the same time. Better bring a backup brain - see you there!
I live in San Diego and was wondering if I should attend this conference. It sounds awesome, but I am unfamiliar with the format. There looks to be A LOT going on, do you just hop from room to room and listen listen listen? How many people are in each speaking session? What are the tutorials like, are you there with your laptop trying to follow??
I think you just pick your sessions and probably miss a lot. I'm not sure if the tutorials are workshops or more like lectures.
