Gnomedex

Ah, so I’m calendaring because I haven’t lately. And people keep mentioning Gnomedex. Which I went to last year. But hadn’t checked out for this year, let alone even registered for.

It’s in Seattle (good I think, but I personally hunger to visit Portland as those things go), the weekend of 23-25 June. We went last year, when it was only $99 and in Tahoe (I like conferences in places I’m already looking for an excuse to adventure to). I think Mike and I will be going - that is we’ll try and hope to see you all there.

Even if you’re not a conference-goer and more like just a normal person, this is a good place to start. This conference grew up in the midwest and last time, there were midwest moms helping out. So it’s a very laid back, friendly sort of place. You’ll meet some people you’ve heard of or read, but others completely new. Sometimes it’s easy to focus on the high profile stuff and people, but that’s not where life really happens. I’d especially like to see more girls there this year, as there was a shocking dearth of them (but all the boys were very nice).

Register here.
