In the last week I have signed up to attend the South by Southwest Conference in Austin, Texas. The dream would be to hit up all three aspects of the festival, Film, Music, and Interactive, oh well. The interactive part of the conference has me super stoked. There will be three of us attending from our lil agency here in Portland. We are staying at the Radison a few blocks from where the conference is located. Did I mention I am super stoked?

The other conference I signed up for is the RailsConf 2007. Now I would be the first person to admit that I am a Rails n00b, even a programming n00b. But the quickness in which stuff seems to get off the ground and the design-minded development community have me bound and determined to add it to my webdesign batbelt. RailsConf is here in Portland which happens to be very convenient for me. I think I can hit the conference center with a stone from where I sit typing this.

Now if only all conferences were in Portland, then I could attend them all. Just kidding, I want to visit the Austins of the world. My professional development budget has now been capped out. Wahoo.
