After a quiet summer, I thought I'd post up my schedule of conferences for the next 3 months.

Heartland Developers Conference
September 28-30th
Upcoming Event Page

I'll be speaking at this event about the Client Continuum, what it is, how to choose which technologies and what are some of the new features available in WPF and Silverlight. It should be a lot of fun and I'm also planning on shooting video for The Continuum Show while there.

PDC2008
October 27-30th
Upcoming Event Page

Possibly attending the SoCal Code Camp as an appetizer, PDC2008 is going to be a great time to "Capture the Brainpower" of those behind the new technologies coming form Microsoft.  PDC is always a massive show and we haven't had one since '05 so the energy has been building up.

I'm helping out with the PDC Lounges, Big Room, advising on the MicrosoftPDC.com site and Channel9's involvement.  I'm also working on another program called PDC Badges which we haven't quite announced yet (feel free to speculate).  So along with the technology news and announcements, there is quite a bit of fun to be had.

Adobe MAX 2008
November 16-19th
Upcoming Event Page

With such a cool conference site, how could you possibly resist the Adobe MAX conference?  In actuality there some interesting session lined up including the much talked about Designer/Developer Workflow, Thermo (the Blend-like Interactive Design tool) and all the new features coming in Flash.

Maybe I'll even shoot some video there as well...

Great way to start the fall...39 Days till PDC08!
